Description
Oxalis Irish Mist is a delightful bulbous perennial that brings a touch of elegance to gardens, pots, and indoor displays. Its striking clover-shaped foliage, a rich shade of emerald green with delicate silvery accents, is a year-round feature that catches the eye even when the plant isn’t in bloom. When in flower, Irish Mist produces clusters of dainty, white to pale pink blooms that create a beautiful contrast against its vibrant foliage.
Compact and low-growing, this variety is perfect for edging paths, softening the edges of containers, or brightening up shaded spots in the garden. It's also ideal for indoor cultivation, thriving in a bright windowsill or conservatory. Easy to care for and versatile, Oxalis Irish Mist adds texture and elegance wherever it grows.
This perennial is a wonderful option for gardeners looking for something unusual yet easy to grow. Whether used as ground cover, a container filler, or a charming houseplant, its unique combination of foliage and flowers makes it a standout choice.
