    Can anyone tell me what this plant is called? My mother in law had a cutting given, but the freind who gave it her got it from a friend - and I have no idea how to identify it. The plasnt is the same as this picture, but the leaves are black. It was taken at the botanical gardens in Scotland.

    I can't attach the picture but below is a link to the site containing the picture.

    It's called Oxalis regnellii "Atropurpurea" syn Oxalis triangularis (one such name shouldbe enough, but no the poor thing got two!) :D
