Description
Make the most of those golden autumn months with a flashy twist of yellow and red, courtesy of Oxalis 'Golden Cape'. The flowers on these neat little plants are so spellbinding—the way they open during the day and close in the evening into a perfect candy-like twist—it’s like they’ve been conjured up by a wizard! Any splash of colour you can inject into the autumn garden is worth its weight in gold, and these jazzy Wood Sorrel are a shining example!
Perfect for a rockery or gravel garden setting as well as tucked in to free-draining borders and patio pots, these compact plants with dazzling striped blooms pop up for their moment in the spotlight between late summer and early winter—ideal if you’re looking to draw out the season of colour that little bit longer. If you protect Oxalis versicolor 'Golden Cape' from frost, you can look forward to a repeat show for years to come.
