I have had the green and the purple ( with red) for years. They are extremely hardy👍 So when I transplant them they seem to die off at first , but within 2-3 weeks they are big and bushy again with flowers . They seem to flower most of the year. They do go through a dormant stage( as you stated) and then come back with lots of flowers. I have my green ones outside. They die back in snow or cold but come right back in spring. They also spread a lot to other plants. ( even indoors I have the purple ones in a lot of my other houseplants ...& I didn’t put them there ) Love your videos! 🌿

That's great! I love the idea of having these growing under some of my taller houseplants, I think it would look great! Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. Andy

I was just as excited to find one as you! I’ve had my purple shamrock in a whiskey barrel planter with some annuals out in the crazy desert weather of Las Vegas since February. It’s been through 30 degrees Fahrenheit to 95 degrees this week. It’s taking it like a champ! I might try to bring in a clump over the summer though because almost nothing survives July here besides true desert plants. Thanks for your videos I’ve learned a lot for my indoor plants.

[@HouseplantHacks]

Wow! They must be strong! Good idea to bring some in, just in case the weather wipes it out, from what I understand it really can't handle the high heat so better be safe. Good luck. Andy

I thought the purpose of the video was to show us how to divide the plant and start new ones. We never got to see the bulbs. I have a few plants like that- green and purple- the green grows white flowers , the purple produces pink flowers. They really are very rewarding plants with fast growth and beauty. I hv always had many plants but this is definitely my al time favorite.

Hey Mr. Mouse how's it going? Oh just having a snack eating this Gouda cheese. Mr Mouse, that's not cheese that's an Oxalis plant. You mean it's not green Gouda cheese - it's triangle shaped like cheese. Nope, that's a plant! Ewww! Puh-too! Puh-too! Poor Mr. Mouse. ( Hi Andy - yes I saw the nice comment LOL!) 🏘🐀🧀

[@Thankful_.]

Excellent info! Thank u!

[@HouseplantHacks]

Glad it was helpful!

Nice one. Just subbed and then planted my oxalis so we'll see how well it does in my menagerie. How many leaves does an average bulb produce? I only have five so another dozen may help.

[@torquess454]

Wonder how she’s doing 2 years later? My new one is so leggy

[@mayaadonix]

Interesting video. I've got the same plant and I find she's easy maintenance. I'm scared to repot it cause every plant I've repotted always dies. I really need help 🤣😭

I’m able to have these in the yard, they die back after a frost but always come back and spread, considered a weed in some areas. I find the leaves delicate and will burn in direct sunlight but I just snap them down to the ground and they ALWAYS grow back! I can’t kill them, when I put them in pots I always cut everything off and let it flush back with new growth. They don’t mind drying out and will wilt and always bounce back when watered in my experience.

[@HouseplantHacks]

They are pretty tough so a repot should be fine. there is no reason why repotted plants should die unless too much of the root is damaged or incorrect soil used. Be sure to check the right amount of watering for each plant also.

[@HouseplantHacks]

That's good to know, I have also found that if they get dry they can wilt and then pop straight back up after watering. Fun little plants!

I want one😫
