Plant Care – Oxalis Triangularis
Light: Place your Oxalis Triangularis under bright and indirect sunlight. And do avoid direct sunlight because it will cause its leaves to scorch and dry up. Oxalis can tolerate low light conditions, however, it is not an ideal environment for them to grow in, and they will be leggy.
Water: Water your Oxalis thoroughly and make sure that the soil is evenly moist. Water your plant whenever the top inch of the soil is dry to the touch. And make sure to water till some water flows through the pot’s drainage holes. Underwatering will cause its leaves to dry up and turn brown.
Soil: Oxalis thrives in well-aerated soil that drains water quickly, and therefore should not be in soils that are too compacted and heavy, which cause prolonged periods of water retention. And this can lead to root problems, for instance, root rot.
Fertiliser: Fertilise with a water-soluble fertiliser every three weeks.
Humidity Requirement: Medium
