Hi, I'm looking for two plants that I'd really, really like to have.

Oxalis renelliiatro purpurea a/k/a Purple Shamrock

Oxalis hedysaroides "rubra" a/k/a/ Chinese Fire Fern (in reality, the leaves are a brighter burgundy than that)

ahhhhhhhhh, dearest Marion, my bestest friend in the whole wide world, what would I have to do to get a piece of it?
Mind you, I don't even know how one propagates (?) it.
Where is your wish list? let me cast my eyes down it..maybe, I might have something that's on it or even know where I can get it....

Annie,

I have regular old yellow-flowering oxalis by the truckload. And a purple texta. Will that be suitable?...*grin*

My mother used to have the Chinese fire fern but they have since moved. The plant seeds a bit too freely, she had seedlings coming up everywhere, though they were a good looking plant with great contrasting foliage to other plants.

Interesting looking oxalis plants.
Annie, all oxalis have little bulbs, so I think that would be the easiest way to propagate them. The other way is from seed.
MooQuack..you are evil!! LOL!
Cheers,
Dee.
