Not a clue! :-[  I see why you went for oxalis though... quick glance at the flower shape and colour caught you out there... easily done. Took clicking on the picture to enlarge it before I saw it properly.

From the remains of the label (Why do they disintegrate so quickly?) I think it is Erodium 'Fripeta'.

There is Erodium 'Fripetta'

On the subject of labels, can I recommend the ones sold by the SRGC as they are not brittle and do not disintegrate  ;D
