Oxalis - Deppei Iron Cross - Pink-burgundy contrast, ideal for edging and balconies - Bulbs - 25 pcs

Oxalis deppei is a low-growing bulb plant with very distinctive leaves made up of four heart-shaped leaflets. The green leaf blades often have a darker, burgundy marking in the centre, which gives the plant an ornamental look even when it is not in flower. In summer, delicate pink flowers appear above the clump of leaves in loose inflorescences. The plant quickly forms compact groups and looks best planted in larger drifts.

Plant the bulbs 5-10 cm apart.

Height

Overwintering
