In the Redwoods these oxalis make a perfect carpet on the forest floor. I love growing them it reminds me of that

Not sure if you're sarcastically trying to confuse or not, but they're the same thing. Oxalis is a genus of the wood-sorrel family.

It's delicious too. Add some to your salads just don't go nuts or you may poop yourself.

Kidney stones are no joke.

I just bottled my wood sorrel infused apple cider vinegar. I have it growing everywhere and I need to weed it constantly so I usually eat it. I do a few times per year to grab all of it and make it into a vinegar. Its one of my favorites vegetables / herbs

What a sublimely calming picture your username and this post paint together. Thank you. 🌈

I know plant fanciers can see things like this and be like Oooooh, beautiful. To me it's leaves. I guess that's my loss. But I thought oxalis was daisies.

In some climates (like mine), some Oxalis species are called "straggler daisies." Not related to actual daisies though (the Bellis genus).

Oh wow I don't think I've ever seen this outside before (east coast US) almost always in house plants potted. And usually the purple stringy variety. Are they related??
