Oxalis Growing Instructions (夏天品種)
Planting Pudgy Sticks
When you open a bag of oxalis regnelli or triangularis you may be surprised. No, we didn't ship you a handful of pudgy sticks or undernourished pinecones. Honest.
These funny looking bulbs will produce foliage and flowers in just 8-10 weeks. Really.
This is just one of those horticultural leaps of faith you'll have to trust us on the first time around. After that, you'll be in the know and can pass a few pudgy sticks on to friends and watch their reactions.
Outdoor Beds
1. Find a location where the soil drains well. If there are still water puddles 5-6 hours after a hard rain, scout out another site. Or amend the soil with the addition of organic material to raise the level 2-3 inches to improve the drainage. Peat moss, compost, ground bark or decomposed manure all work well and are widely available.
2. Site your oxalis where they will get full day sun. They will also grow in light shade, but will produce more flowers and triangularsis leaf color will be more brilliant in stronger light.
3. Dig little holes and plant the bulbs 1”-1 1/2” deep and 3”-4” apart. Just poke them down in the soil, don't worry about which side is up. They'll grow from any position.
4. After planting, water well, thoroughly soaking the area. Foliage will form in about 6 weeks and flowers in 8-10 weeks.
5. When blooming has finished for the season leave the foliage in place; don't cut it off. The leaves will gather sunlight and provide nourishment for next year's show. Water as needed during active growth periods.
6. Late in the summer the leaves will yellow and die back as the plant slips into dormancy. Foliage many be removed at this point. Your oxalis will rest for a few months before beginning the next growing cycle.
Pots, Tubs, Urns & Windowboxes
1. Fill your containers with good quality, well-drained soil. Almost any commercially available potting medium will work fine. Make sure there are adequate drainage holes; oxalis bulbs must not sit in waterlogged soil or they will rot.
