Oxalis - but which one?

(1/1)

johnryden:
Can anyone identify the exact name of the Oxalis shown in the photo for me please as I have lost the label?  It’s tiny, with white flowers and is in my alpine bed. Only about 2 cms high but creeping. Thanks.

John

Palustris:
Looks very much like Oxalis magellanica to me.

johnryden:
Thanks, having looked it up that sounds about right.  Only problem is that it could be invasive - see how it goes.  Thanks again.

John

Palustris:
No two ways about it, it IS invasive. But not too hard to pull out when it goes where you do not want it and it does cover the ground nicely.
