Probably the worst weed of the world  :(
Does there exist a country near the sea without this weed ??  :o

Oxalis pes-caprae? Is it?  There are nice multi-petalled forms.

I grow two collections from Corsica and Sicily

they are fantastic and you can't compare them with the weedy ones

I've never seen the Oxalis pes-caprae in Belgium or the Netherlands. What I read about it, it's not hardy there.  I can see here in Spain, that it is very invasive. But the leaves and flowers are nice, so if I can find seeds I'm going to try it as an annual. Since it's not hardy in my zone 6, I don't think it will get invasive in Belgium.

Thank you Hans for the identification of 4 of the plants I found.

This grass has tiny yellow flowers. I also noticed a black powder if the blooms were gone.
