This plant is crazy about the sunshine, but it can tolerate lower-light conditions if need be. Avoid overwatering this plant. Feed once a month with a good, diluted liquid houseplant fertilizer. Expect a possible brief period of dormancy each year when food and water should be held back until new foliage begins to fill in.

A very striking Oxalis that we love to use in the miniature garden, this houseplant has very colorful eye-catching foliage held on a compact plant. The clover-like leaves are dark purple and maroon liberally marked with bright pink splashes. It gets small, yellow flowers blooming above the foliage all year long. Enjoy its rich colors, and place it in a spot where pets cannot nibble at it. It works well in the miniature or fairy garden and is a great choice to mix with succulents.
