Lime clover (Oxalis triangularis) in P9 pot
Lime clover is a decorative perennial plant with striking, triangular purple leaves and delicate, pale pink flowers in summer. The leaves have a fresh, slightly tart flavor that can be used in salads, dressings, or as an edible garnish. A beautiful and surprising addition to any edible garden or pot.
The plant grows compactly and reaches a height of about 20–30 cm, making it also suitable for borders, pots or as a houseplant.
Plant in a sunny to partially shaded spot in well-drained, humus-rich soil. Water regularly during dry spells, but avoid wet feet. Easy to care for and perfect for those who want to combine color and flavor in their garden.
Organic/non-organic
This planting material comes from a small-scale grower without an official organic certificate. But don't worry, we're certain it's pesticide-free.
Stronger plants, honest photos
Our plants are grown outdoors and are completely winter-hardy. They aren't young greenhouse plants, but stronger, perennials that have been growing for a while and therefore have a well-developed root system. By growing in wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, they are better hardened, more robust, and adapt more quickly after planting than herbs grown in a warm greenhouse this year. Conservatory plants often look greener and fuller, but are younger and less resilient.
Because our plants follow the natural rhythm of the seasons, they can look bare or less attractive in winter. Many perennials die back (partially) above ground and store their energy underground. Sometimes the pot may seem empty, but don't worry: the strong roots are alive and will ensure the plant sprouts vigorously again in spring.
The photos show what the plants look like in winter, so you get a fair idea of what you'll receive if you order in the spring.
