Oxalis triangularis 'Fanny' (False Shamrock) is a bulbous plant forming a lush foliage clump of trifoliate leaves that close at night and open wide to the morning light. Adorned with silver margins, each leaf has the shape of a little heart, but is triangular like butterfly wings. In summer, umbels of delicate, five-petaled, soft pink flowers appear atop slender stems, above the handsome clover-like foliage. This is a very easy foliage plant to cultivate and maintain. It does not spread or seed around the garden like its weedy cousins.
