That REALLY is something Roma! From the colour of the foliage and the chips, I would guess the colour is pretty true? Is this named for Sandy Leven?
Yes Lesley the colour is about right.  I don't think it is named for Sandy Leven but I'm not sure.  I must ask Jim Sutherland next time I see him.  I bought the plant from him at the Aberdeen show.

Does anyone know what the name of this Oxalis is? The flowers are looking like O. pes-caprae, but it is not this weedy one!

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum

Oxalis lobata and O. perdicaria are the only ones in which the leaflets are not inserted in a single flat plane. This can be clearly seen in your photo.

Very nice, Peter. 
Until I saw Forumist Dabi's photo of O. monophylla here in the forum some time ago,  I didn't know it existed..... very nice plant.

I don't think your O. luteola IS luteola. I'm sorry that I can't really say more than that as mine is just about died off now but the leaves are bright apple green, slightly dented at the apex and not coloured on the backs. Nor does it have red stems and the leaves and stems are hairless. I haven't a picture of luteola but here is luteola maculata which is only different in having dark reddish patches on the leaves. Otherwise it is identical. I think the one you picture is more like a form of O. purpurea. I'd have to admit the images available through Google are inconclusive.

Oxalis luteola maculata. Note the hairs on the stems and leaves, and some red stems.
