Oxalis 2018

[Maggi Young]

Oxalis laciniata “Sweet Sue” (Is it O. patagonica or O. laciniata?).

Janis lists it as an O. enneaphylla.  Though I've seen it named at AGS shows  as O. laciniata. And Juris Egle calles it O. patagonica ..... I need to try to find out more about this!

[Mark Griffiths]

that's odd because the leaves look like Oxalis laciniata or a hybrid thereof. I've never seen an enneaphylla with the wavy leaves but who knows? I thought O.patagonica was just a purple form of enneaphylla.

[Maggi Young]

The leaves are saying "laciniata" to me, for sure!

[Mark Griffiths]

I wonder what they taste like.

I read Clarence Elliott's account of his collecting O.enneaphylla and then at some show presenting it to Lily Langtry. Upon telling her that sailors used it to prevent scurvy she ate it apparently.
