Oxalis frutescens, commonly known as wood sorrel, is a perennial plant in the family Oxalidaceae. It is native to South America and is known for its clover-like leaves and small, delicate flowers. The plant undergoes a dormancy period during the winter months.
Oxalis frutescens thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers moderate temperatures. It requires a humid environment and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
Bodem
Oxalis frutescens prefers well-draining loam soil. Ensure the soil mix allows for good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season for optimal growth.
Verpotten
Repot Oxalis frutescens every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its current pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and fresh loam soil.
Voortplanting
Propagate Oxalis frutescens through division or by planting bulbils. The best time to propagate is during the spring or early summer when the plant is actively growing.
Snoeien
Prune Oxalis frutescens to remove dead or yellowing leaves and to maintain its shape. Pruning can be done throughout the growing season as needed.
Toxiciteit
Oxalis frutescens contains oxalic acid, which is toxic to pets and humans if ingested in large quantities. Symptoms of toxicity include vomiting, drooling, and difficulty swallowing.
