About this item

  • OXALIS BASICS

    Botanical name:Oxalis species.
    Common names:Wood sorrel, false shamrock, shamrock plant, good luck plant, love plant
    Plant type:Tender bulb, often grown as an annual or indoor plant.
    Zones:USDA Zones 7-10, although some varieties can tolerate colder temperatures.
    Exposure:Full sun to partial shade
    Bloom time:Virtually ever-blooming, with the heaviest flower production in the cooler temperatures of early spring and autumn. Plants tend to rest in the summer when temperatures exceed 85°F.
    Flower colors:There are white, pink, rose, lavender, or yellow-flowered varieties, as well as some with two-toned flowers.
    Foliage colors:Green, purple, silver, or variegated
    Is oxalis toxic?
    All members of the Oxalis genus contain oxalic acid, which can be toxic when ingested in large quantities. Keep plants away from children and pets. See more Common Poisonous Plants for Dogs and Cats.
    Is oxalis invasive?
    Some native species of oxalis, such as yellow wood sorrel (O. stricta) and creeping wood sorrel (O. corniculata), are common weeds and considered to be invasive. However, the ornamental varieties featured here are easily contained and will not spread out of bounds.

  • PLANTING OXALIS

    Where to plant:
    In full sun or light shade in well-drained, fertile soil. If you live in a hot climate, plants will do best in a location with afternoon shade.
    When to plant:
    Plant bulbs outdoors in late spring, after all danger of frost has passed. The foliage typically emerges 3 to 4 weeks after planting, with the flowers appearing approximately 8 to 10 weeks later.
    How to plant:
    In garden beds, plant bulbs approximately 2 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart, covering lightly with soil. If necessary, dig a little compost or organic matter into the soil before planting to improve soil quality.
    For container plantings, plant the bulbs about an inch deep in a well-draining potting mix, using about 6 to 8 bulbs for a 6-inch pot.
    Forcing oxalis bulbs:
    You can also force potted oxalis bulbs indoors before moving them out to the garden by placing them in bright light in a room with cool temperatures (about 55° to 60°F). Keep the soil evenly moist, but not drenched. Once blooms begin to appear, they will often continue for several months. Unlike hardy bulbs, oxalis bulbs don’t need a cooling period (or vernalization) in order to grow.

  • OXALIS CARE AND MAINTENANCE

    Watering:
    Oxalis plants will wilt if the soil is allowed to dry out, so keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy. The bulbs will rot in overly wet soil.
    Fertilizing:
    If grown in well-composted soil, oxalis rarely needs additional plant food. Container-grown plants will benefit from the application a slow-release fertilizer at planting time. Withhold fertilizing if plants enter a resting or dormancy period in midsummer.
    Pruning and deadheading:
    Plants are self-cleaning, so no deadheading is necessary, but you can lightly prune the foliage at any time to control plant size and shape. If your plants go dormant in the summer and the leaves begin to turn brown, you can trim back the dying foliage to about an inch from base of the plant.
    Overwintering:
    In areas colder than zone 7, dig up bulbs planted in garden beds before the first frost and store them in a cool, dry place until they can be replanted in the spring. For shamrock plants grown in pots, move them indoors and stop watering them. Store them in a cool, frost-free place to keep them dormant. At the beginning of the next growing season, you can repot the bulbs and resume watering and fertilizing.
    Pests and diseases:
    Oxalis have few pests, but be on the lookout for aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites, which may occasionally be a nuisance. Other potential problems include fungal leaf spot, rust, and powdery mildew.

  • GROWING OXALIS INDOORS

    Light requirements:
    Give bright, indirect light, such as from a south- or west-facing window. Under low-light conditions, plants may become spindly and fail to bloom.
    Ideal room temperature:
    Cool night temperatures (around 50° to 65°F) and warm daytime temperatures (around 70° to 75°F).
    Humidity:
    Average household humidity levels are fine.
    Watering:
    Keep soil evenly moist, watering when the surface of the soil feels dry. Pots should have drainage holes to prevent soggy soil.
    Fertilizing:
    Feed every 2 to 3 weeks with a balanced liquid house plant fertilizer while plants are actively growing.
    Dormancy:
    If your indoor oxalis begins to lose all of its leaves, don’t panic. It’s just entering a period of dormancy (which usually lasts for a month or two) so it can conserve energy for a new flush of growth. During this time, move your plant into a dark place, reduce watering, and stop fertilizing until you see new growth begin. This dormancy period is a good opportunity to divide plants by separating some of the bulbs and replanting them in new pots.    

  • USING OXALIS IN THE GARDEN

    There are many ways to use oxalis in the garden, including: rock gardens, groundcover, edging or front of border, or in containers and hanging baskets.
    Fun fact:
    Ever wondered why some oxalis are called "butterfly shamrocksâ€? That’s because their leaves are photophilic, which means they respond to light intensity by folding up at night or on overcast days and reopening when the sun shines. During the day, they may even stretch or change the position of their leaves to capture as much sunlight as possible.

    Flower Bulb Facts of Life

    Bulbs: Beauty In a Bottle:

    Bulbs are a natural product. And, as such, follow a natural cycle of growth and rebirth. Enjoying their fabulous flowers means planting ahead in one season then results the next. Bulbs are among the easiest flowers to grow, not only are they affordable, but bulbs offer the most stunning colors available. Even the most novice gardener can create a breathtakingly beautiful spring garden with bulbs.

    What's a Bulb?

    A flower bulb is really a self-contained flower factory. Within this marvelous little package is nearly everything the flower needs to come to life! Split a bulb open, for instance, and you'll see its baby flower bud, leaves, roots, stem and food supply. All bulbs need from you is to be placed in the ground at the appropriate season of year, given a liberal drink of water then left to work their magic.

    Variety:

    Flower bulbs come in seemingly limitless varieties which makes them perfectly suitable for any garden design you can dream up.

    Is It a bulb ?

    The Difference Between Bulbs, Corms, Tubers, Roots,Today, people commonly us the term 'bulb' to refer to any plant that stores its own food underground. But, in truth, many popular 'bulbs' are not true bulbs at all. These include corms, tubers and roots and, while they all produce beautiful flowers, technically the plants are different

    When To Plant

    In fall, after soil temperatures are below 50ºF/10ºC. These bulbs bloom the following spring and require the cold winter temperatures for development. But let's say winter arrives and your bulbs are still in their bag. Not to worry! Bulbs are pre-programmed to grow so even if you have to plant through snow, plant your bulbs!

    How To Plant

    Most bulbs thrive in either full or partial sun and in almost any location with good drainage. Avoid planting at the base of hills or under drainage pipes where water collects and will rot the bulbs.

    • Dig a hole
    • Drop in the bulb
    • Water thoroughly

    Tips For success

    • A larger grouping of flower bulbs are far more fab than just a few planted here and there. Think clumps of color.
    • Buy the largest bulbs you can find.
    • Note the flowering times. Not all bulbs will bloom at the same time. A little planning will greatly increase the number of months you will enjoy bulb flowers.

The first year end result will be noticeable to anyone.The best predictor for gardening success is bulb size.

    Great toy while it lasts
    Size: 3 INCH, Pattern Name: IQ TREAT BALL 3"
    We purchased one of these for our 10 pound Malshipoo as she gets bored easily and this thing definitely keeps her busy for awhile while she tries to get the treats out. She rolls and kicks it hard enough that I'm sometimes fearful it will break but after having owned it for 14 months it's actually held together quite nicely to my surprise. I think it came apart once and that's probably because I didn't have it screwed on correctly. The only reason I didn't rate it higher was two things: First, I don't like that the top section is in two parts and you have to fit them together just right for it to screw on. Why not make it one solid piece on the top? The second reason I didn't rate it higher is the white plate with the hole you twist to make the hole bigger or smaller is now a lot looser so when our dog bangs this against a wall or anything hard the hole shifts and makes it bigger thus the game doesn't last as long. So I'm purchasing a new one and hoping this doesn't happen again. I guess it's just wear and tear but I would have like it to last longer than 14 months. Maybe I guess my expectations aren't realistic. Hopefully the next one lasts longer.

    This is a good toy to keep some dogs busy
    Size: 4 INCH, Pattern Name: IQ TREAT BALL 4"
    I purchased this for my pitbull that is very food driven. One thing I first noticed about this ball is the type plastic it's made of. It's similar to the plastic they use for some cheap hamster balls. I would be cautious If you live in a two story home that doesn't have carpeted stairs because this my break after falling down the stairs or a few drops from a few feet. If you have a small dog, be cautious if they bite onto the ball because they can get their teeth stuck in the small holes. I would also advise people with large dogs with strong jaws from this toy because if they crush this plastic, the edges will be sharp enough to cut their mouths. The first thing you would have to do is adjust the center white disc to the size of the treats. If you make the hole too big, too many treats will fall out too fast and it will shorten the time you dog will play with this. You can put small training training treats or dog food in the bottom half of the ball. I use my dogs food for my dog. Be mindful of the amount of the treat's calories and the quantity you put in the ball. Just make sure you account the extra calories for the amount of exercise your dog receives otherwise you may have a chubby doggy. After filling the bottom half and placing the white disc on top of it, all you have to do is screw on the top and its ready for your dog to work for their tasty snacks. I wouldn't have given this to my dog when she was younger because was the type of dog that would of destroyed the toy when she was aggravated with it just to get to the treats. Now she's learned to figure out toys before she brings it to me to help her out. I usually fill it up with some low calorie food and when she gets down to the last few bits, she gives up on the toy and leaves it where it is or brings it back to me to open it up for the last few pieces. I was surprised after several uses, the lid never accidentally came unscrewed while my dog was playing with it. Overall this is a good toy to keep my dog occupied for 20-30 minutes. Shes a pretty smart dog and shes learned how to get the treats out fairly quick. Your mileage may vary depending on the size and shape of your treats you put in.

    Kept our dog busy!
    Color: Navy Blue, Color: Navy Blue
    We have a 4 month old corgi and he is obsessed with this toy. The puzzle pieces move really easily so they are able to get into it but also create enough of a puzzle for them to move around.

    Challenging for my experienced puzzle players, sturdy all in one.
    Color: Navy Blue
    My girls love this treat puzzle; it is not for a first timer. My dogs have several of these and they cannot get the hand of spinning the light blue circle to move the small red covers. It is a challenge and that is what they need to give me some me time.

    Keeps my dog busy for a bit
    Color: Navy Blue
    I don't fill the hard to open spots yet, he's just figuring it out. It does keep his attention. It's a little small for a big dog (100lb Lab), prob better for a small dog. He has a hard time with the little trays. Definitely worth trying out. I wanted an inexpensive puzzle toy to try first, in case he didn't like it or couldn't figure it out.
