Oxalis Iron Cross (False Shamrock)

Overview

  • Distinctive green and purple, clover-shaped leaves
  • Foliage opens with light and folds closed at night
  • Easy-care tuberous perennial
  • Adds vivid color and movement to indoor collections

Oxalis Iron Cross, commonly called False Shamrock, is prized for its dramatic, clover-shaped leaves in deep green and purple hues, each leaflet folding down like butterfly wings at dusk. Its delicate white or light pink blooms rise above the foliage, adding a gentle contrast. At BoDurtha’s, we love this plant for its sculptural color and dynamic daily movements.

Origins

Native to Brazil, this species grows from small tubers in partial shade, often carpeting forest floors with its bold purple foliage.

Light Requirements

Bright, indirect light keeps foliage vibrant.

  • Too much direct sun may scorch delicate leaves
  • Low light results in leggy, sparse growth
  • Best near an east-facing window or bright northern exposure

Watering

Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.

  • Overwatering can rot tubers—ensure soil is never soggy
  • Drooping leaves may indicate underwatering or dormancy initiation
  • Allow plant to go dormant if it begins to decline; reduce watering and resume when new growth appears

Soil & Potting

Use a light, well-draining potting mix.

  • Aroid Mix is suitable, though standard indoor potting mix with perlite works as well
  • Pots must have drainage holes to prevent tuber rot
  • Shallow pots are ideal due to the plant’s small root system

Fertilizer

Feed monthly during the active growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer, diluted to half strength.

  • Do not fertilize during dormancy

Recommended Growth Style: Freeform

Oxalis triangularis is best grown freeform to display its foliage movement and flowering habit.

  • No staking or vertical support required
  • Looks beautiful clustered in groups or as a colorful accent among green foliage plants

Final Notes

Oxalis triangularis is a graceful, low-maintenance plant that adds movement and vivid color to any space. Its daily opening and closing provide a gentle rhythm to your environment. At BoDurtha’s, we celebrate its ephemeral charm and encourage letting it rest during dormancy to keep it thriving for years to come.

Good Quality but Limited Space for Multiple Bottles
Color: Black
This organizer is decent quality, but it ended up being smaller than I expected. For reference, I usually keep the following items at my sink: • Dawn squeeze dish soap • Mrs. Meyers hand soap • Dr. Brown’s bottle soap • A sponge • A bottle brush All of these items fit comfortably in my previous sink caddy that I bought on Amazon. Unfortunately that one eventually started peeling and rusting, which is why I replaced it. With this one, the narrow section on the left side limits how much you can actually store. It works well for the brush, but it reduces the usable space for bottles. Because of that, fitting multiple soap bottles plus a sponge is a little tight. I also think my previous organizer was slightly wider, which made a bigger difference than I realized. One feature I do like is the removable plastic tray on the bottom. It catches water well and keeps the counter from getting messy, which is a nice touch. Overall, it’s usable and I will keep it, but if you normally keep several bottles and tools at your sink like I do, I would recommend paying close attention to the measurements before ordering.

Fits well in any space
Color: Black
This is a great little caddy. It sits nicely in the small area I have and keeps all my stuff organized. The tray comes out to clean it.

Wonderful size and holds the essentials.
Color: A-silver
I have no room for something bigger because I have a drop in sink. This is working wonderful. There is room for a scrubby, sponge my stove top cleaner and scrapper for stove. The tray below to catch any water is great and very easy to remove and drain. It takes a second to do. Great size as it is not huge but holds what I need.

Good caddy, not a fan of the clear water holder. Should be black like the caddy. And maybe another taller area for the sponge
