This native of South Africa is simply beautiful! You will see raspberry ripple coloured, funnel shaped flowers appear soon after planting from November onwards. Perfect for the front of pots or borders.

Grow in pots on your decking, balconies or terraces – this variety really is a joy to behold and the flowers will make your garden a talking point! They’re really easy to grow, and being so exotic looking, your friends and family will truly think you are blessed with green fingers!

Stunning when in full bloom, the flowers are even more striking when in bud and marked with vivid crimson-pink stripes, hence its common name, the ‘Candy Cane Sorrel’. This delightful little plant is something uniquely special, with its bright white, funnel-shaped flowers edged with colour.

Even when not in flower, this striped oxalis will continue to delight with its mound of spring-forming green leaves, adding subtle texture and colour to your garden.

Supplied as a pack of 10 bulbs, ready to be planted out in autumn.

Care Information

The small bulbs of Oxalis versicolor will naturalise over the years and the soil should be kept rather dry in the early summer until the plant starts growing, before returning to regular watering.
Add a layer of horticultural grit to the planting hole to improve drainage as the bulbs do not like cold wet conditions.
Use a general purpose feed through the year.
Bulbs are frost-sensitive and should be protected overwinter with a layer of straw or fallen leaves.
