    Here is a pic of an unusual variety that is planted into a container with an Aeonium, I keep both in the cold greenhouse. The Oxalis has deep carmine flowers and definitely needs dividing.
    I have tried both of these Oxalis outdoors over the winter and they have survived, but they always look feeble and don't flower the next summer.

    Thanks Paladin, I have missed you all too. I have had a very strange year, too much to go into, however things are slowly returning to 'normal' so hopefully I'll be around on here a bit more. Got a lot of catching up to do!
