Thompson & Morgan Houseplant Oxalis Triangularis 12Cm Potted Plant X 1

Oxalis triangularis (Purple), also affectionately known as 'Brazilian Butterfly', boasts delicate triangular leaves resembling a flutter of purple butterflies, held gracefully on slender stems. What sets it apart is its striking two-tone foliage - deep-purple triangular leaves with a vivid pinkish-purple splash at the centre, creating a mesmerizing contrast. In the summertime, it adorns itself with sprays of charming white or pale pink trumpet-shaped flowers, adding to its allure. An intriguing feature of this plant is its unique behaviour - the leaves gently fold down at night, reminiscent of butterflies closing their wings, and reopen with the morning light. Perfect for a cool room or conservatory, this tender perennial can also grace a shady spot outdoors during the summer months. Awarded the esteemed RHS Award of Garden Merit, this plant promises to be a prized addition to your houseplant collection. Height and spread 10-20cm.
