Description
Let Oxalis massoniana light up your life in autumn with its radient amber glow! This incredibly cute little alpine is one to enjoy in a special spot where you can admire it up close. In late summer, it sprouts neat whorls of foliage, soon followed by a happy display of orange flowers. Oxalis massoniana will produce blooms throughout autumn and into winter – this fresh colour is one of the highlights of the season. Also known as Masson’s wood sorrel, it has an RHS Award of Garden Merit—a prestigious award which is only dished out to plants which display exceptional qualities!
Oxalis massoniana is a dainty little plant and one you will enjoy most in a place where it can be easily seen. Put a pot-full on a low wall or an outdoor table where the glowing flowers can be fully adored. If you have a rockery and live in a mild area where temperatures won’t fall below zero in winter, you can nestle this plant between the stones and enjoy seeing it pop up every year. This plant flowers in cool temperatures, don’t be tempted to bring it indoors. If a frost is forecast, move your Oxalis massoniana into a covered position for the night to keep it sweet.
