Oxalis versicolor commonly known as Candy Cane Sorrel, is a distinctive low-growing perennial prized for its eye-catching flowers. Each bloom features elegant red and white stripes that spiral like a candy cane, making it a cheerful addition to any garden.

This compact plant is ideal for rockeries, pots or as a delicate ground cover, particularly in sunny spots where its flowers can fully open. It prefers full sun and humus-rich, well-drained soil and is summer dormant, reappearing in cooler months to brighten the garden with its unique blooms. Hardy and easy to maintain, Oxalis versicolor is perfect for adding seasonal colour and charm to smaller garden spaces.
