Flower Appearance
The Oxalis 'Cretaceous' is renowned for its striking, artistic blooms. Each flower features a soft, creamy white or pale pink center that radiates outward, transitioning into a vibrant, sunset-orange or coral-pink at the petal tips. The contrast is further enhanced by a glowing yellow throat at the base of the petals. Set against a backdrop of finely textured, clover-like green foliage, these star-shaped blooms create a spectacular, long-lasting display that brightens the cooler months.
Key Features
• Bloom Season: Late autumn to early spring, providing color when other plants are dormant.
• Height: 5-15 cm (compact, tidy, and perfect for layering).
• Light Requirement: Thrives in full sun to partial shade.
• Placement: Ideal for pots, windowsills, balconies, or rock gardens.
• Maintenance: Low-maintenance; drought-tolerant once established.
• Dormancy: Enters a natural rest phase in late spring/summer; bulbs are easy to store until the next bloom cycle begins.
Why Choose Oxalis 'Cretaceous'?
