I had planted about 5 pots of Oxalis - just to be on the safe side.<br />One of the Oxalis appear to be disappearing - first signs were the withered leaves. I stopped watering it for 3-4 days and it spring back to life again after the 5th day of watering.<br /><br />I doubt Oxalis go dormant here - if it appear to be going dormant - then quickly uproot the whole thing and check because the chances are the rootmass is getting rotten.<br />I thought it will eventually go dormant - but they seemed to be putting runners and taking more space on the pot. <br />Perhaps - its the watering - too much water kills, and often - it appears the faster you savage and reset the soil - the more you can savage them from root rot.James Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423981835876393119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-41910271694974072442011-11-20T22:08:14.041+08:002011-11-20T22:08:14.041+08:00Hi James!

Sometimes, I wonder whether they're dormant as happens in colder regions and just waiting to spring back when we ignore them?Jacquelinehttp://www.jaycjayc.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-5364713316659724512011-10-25T15:46:37.387+08:002011-10-25T15:46:37.387+08:00They look like purple butterflies in your garden.They look like purple butterflies in your garden.Autumn Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818422090556602092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-89257708023922890852011-10-11T18:24:52.204+08:002011-10-11T18:24:52.204+08:00love those trailing plants with their eye catching...love those trailing plants with their eye catching colors.Thanks for sharing<br />anandhriajan<br />www.anandhirajansartsncrafts.blogspot.compainted princess collectionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774005546805699666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6901937196017931930.post-70195503682984513572011-10-11T16:16:20.790+08:002011-10-11T16:16:20.790+08:00Hi James, this same oxalis gave me a surprise this...Hi James, this same oxalis gave me a surprise this time round with more flowers than leaves. Also my episcias (red flower) has been flowering really nicely. <br /><br />For my oxalis, like what you have already discovered, as long as the soil is well draining and free from snails, then the bulbs should be still/dormant in the soil. And they regrow slowly.<br /><br />You have nice collection of trailing plant there :-DStephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05867061279916535777noreply@blogger.com
