Oxalis Plants are hardy outdoors in zones 6-11, they adapt well to indoor conditions year round.
Soil: A well-drained potting mix works well. Oxalis will NOT grow well in overly wet soil but does like moist soil. Make sure your pot has a drainage hole.
Dig little holes and plant the bulbs 1”-1 1/2” deep and 3”-4” apart. Just poke them down in the soil, don't worry about which side is up. They'll grow from any position.
After planting, water well, gently soaking the soil and settling it around the bulbs. Foliage will begin to appear in just a few weeks and flowers in 6-8 weeks. Site your oxalis where they will get full day sun. They will also grow in light shade, but will produce more flowers in stronger light.
Temperature: Standard indoor temperatures are fine. The ideal temperature is around 60-70°F (15-21°C). Temperatures above 75°F/24°C become problematic. At high temperature, the Oxalis will start to look ‘tired’ and may go into dormancy and drop all it’s leaves.
Water: Allow the soil to dry between watering, ensure the top 2 cm of soil is dry before watering. The worst thing you can do with bulbs is overwater as it will rot the bulb. Expect to water about once every 2 weeks.
Light: Keep your Oxalis in a filtered bright to medium light but away from direct light. It grows well in morning light (i.e. East window).
