Never forget the first time i saw those pinkish worm shaped bulbs in a pot I was emptying out one fall. I thought maybe some alien creature from another planet. But i threw them in with some fresh soil to see what monster might come up. Very happy when it was oxalis, whew.

I did the same thing with my Oxalis plants last fall, as well as with my Calladium bulbs. Once the plants had to come inside, it was like they were telling me they wanted to hibernate. I let everything die down and kept the pots kind of out of sight. I am still waiting to wake everyone up, but can't wait to see what will happen! Your video shows me I'm on the right track.

[@michele6708]

My purple oxalis is about 34 years old. I have found she likes to be watered regularly (but not wet feet) and plenty of sun. She has looked beautiful whenever I give her these conditions….until about 18 months ago. She started getting faded light spots on all of her leaves, kinda like plant age spots. She looked awful and wasn’t pushing out as many new leaves and the new growth was weak and also spotted. I wasn’t sure if it was from a pest, although it didn’t look like pest damage (I had been battling mealy bugs and the occasional scale at the time). I couldn’t find anything about the condition, so I decided to clean off all of the soil in case there was either fungus, bacteria or bugs hiding out there. I took her outside and used the garden hose to vigorously spray and scrub all traces of soil off the corms. I spread them on paper towels and dried them completely, then, to hedge my bets, I wrapped some of the dry corms in paper towels and stored in a cool dark place in a brown paper bag. The rest I replanted in the same (sterilized) pot, and she is back to her happy self now, basking in the sun. Glad to see with a little care, plants can grow old gracefully. I only hope I can do the same!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

I know right!

Niiiice, I have the same plant, and I'm glad to see you have it as well. I leave it to "die" in end winter, and start watering it later in spring, but now i might start using your technique Master of the Sheffield Cult. Thanks 👍

I've a bulbed oxalis plant in a different species than yours on the video. I planted it in last early spring as a small bulbil and became a mature plant in mid summer under my care. My oxalis plant grew over 100 bulbils from 1 tiny bulb before it went dormant in October. I repotted these bulbils recently and saw a few of them sprouted and hope that it'll flower in summer!

[@fenixdesigns]

FYI, not to split hairs, but technically, for the Oxalis Triangularis, they're called 'corms' rather than 'bulbs'. Mostly semantics, really... corms, bulbs, rhizomes, tubers... , pish, posh, po-tay-to, po-tah-toe, to-mae-to, to-mah-to... however you want to say or call it, I suppose it doesn't really matter as they're all so similar at the end of the day. But technically, horticulturally that is, there _is_ a slight difference between them, so just thought I'd point that out for the sake of it! lol 😉 Great videos, btw... great tips, and I love the humour you add to your videos!

I think we've all been sold a bill of goods by plant merchants: we assume our plants should always look like they looked in the shop/catalog. As you've remarked before, those looks are often forced. Find out your plant's true nature, accommodate it, and you'll be well rewarded. This video is a perfect case in point. Thanks again.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Love that!

[@tericoulter4426]

I've had one of these for years and its one of the easiest plants to grow. It will go into dormancy on it's own whenever it feels its ready. Just wait for it to all die off and then just cut off the dead stuff. It will come back on its own better than before and bloom like crazy then a few months later will go into dormancy again. Almost never have to re pot it; just add a little fertilizer once in a while.

However, I think I’m going to try this dormant stage with one of mine since it is a monster now after 3 years and would like to repot it.
