We used to call this sour grass when I was a kid. You would pick the stem of the flower and chew on it. It was very sour, kind of like Rhubarb. When I got in to the horticulture 22 years ago I found out this is really Oxalis pes-caprae. This was shot at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, California. Thank you for checking out my new work.

This is the flower of Oxalis Rosea. Canon 450D DSLR. Orton effect applied in Photoshop.

The second of forays into ‘doing something’ with photos. Also done in Photosop CS3. The original pink oxalis was highlighted from its background and the colour of the background changed. Then we decided to duplicate the flower and moved it around, then change its colour, before making it negative colouring, then added a different coloured background again. Unfortunately forgot to make notes to see what worked and what didn’t in the process!
A pretty weed when it’s in flower, oxalis aka wood sorrel, is often mistaken for clover. This variety, O. corymbosa, pink shamrock, pink wood sorrel, or lilac oxalis – endemic in Australian gardens – is poisonous, and bulbs make it very difficult to get rid of.

Each Spring my gardens fill to overflowing with dark green clover-type leaves and gloriously pretty yellow flowers. If I’d planted them I’d be so proud of them!!! BUT, they are nothing but common oxalis – a dreaded weed! Why, oh why, must such a beautiful plant be so hardy and so vigourous that we dread it?
I like the way this oxalis flower contrasted with the background. Taken at Balook in the Gippsland of Australia.

These beautiful woodland plants, Oxalis, were drenched with a light April shower just before I got to them.
Still – in a way – nobody sees a flower – really – it is so small – we haven’t the time -and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time. ~ Georgia O’Keeffe
