How to care for Oxalis Ciliaris

Water

Oxalis Ciliaris should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Soil

Oxalis Ciliaris loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

Lighting

Oxalis Ciliaris thrives in bright and direct sunlight. To ensure your plant receives enough light to survive, place it less than one foot from a window. The current weather in your area may affect the placement in your home. For example, if you live in a region that has longer and more intense periods of sunlight, then you may want to place the plant farther away from the window to avoid direct sunlight and reduce the risk of sunburn. Alternatively, if you live in a region with relatively milder temperatures and less intense sunlight, then you may be able to place the plant closer to the window for increased exposure. Ultimately, the current weather in your area should be taken into consideration when determining the best placement for your Acetosella Mundii.

Toxicity

Humidity

The Oxalis Ciliaris does not need extra humidity. Plants primarily absorb water through their root system, making soil watering the best way to provide humidity to your plants.
