Description

This native of South Africa is simply beautiful! You will see raspberry ripple coloured, funnel shaped flowers appear soon after planting from November onwards. Perfect for the front of pots or borders.

Grow in pots on your decking, balconies or terraces - this variety really is a joy to behold and the flowers will make your garden a talking point! They're really easy to grow, and being so exotic looking, your friends and family will truly think you are blessed with green fingers!

Stunning when in full bloom, the flowers are even more striking when in bud and marked with vivid crimson-pink stripes, hence its common name, the 'Candy Cane Sorrel'. This delightful little plant is something uniquely special, with its bright white, funnel-shaped flowers edged with colour.

Even when not in flower, this striped oxalis will continue to delight with its mound of spring-forming green leaves, adding subtle texture and colour to your garden.

Supplied as a pack of 10 bulbs, ready to be planted out in autumn.

Top Tips
After flowering, leave the foliage to die down naturally and cut back when it has turned yellow.
Care Information
  • The small bulbs of Oxalis versicolor will naturalise over the years and the soil should be kept rather dry in the early summer until the plant starts growing, before returning to regular watering.
  • Add a layer of horticultural grit to the planting hole to improve drainage as the bulbs do not like cold wet conditions.
  • Use a general purpose feed through the year.
  • Bulbs are frost-sensitive and should be protected overwinter with a layer of straw or fallen leaves.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
