How to grow Oxalis Bulb

Pot or Garden Bed:

You can grow Oxalis bulbs in pots or directly in a garden bed. If using pots, make sure they have drainage holes.

Planting Depth

Plant the Oxalis bulbs about 2.5 to 5 cm deep in the soil. Space them about 10 to 15 cm apart if you’re planting multiple bulbs.

Planting Season

The best planting season for Oxalis is typically spring (February – March) and, in some regions, fall (September-November). Avoid planting during hot summer months, and protect the bulbs from freezing in cold winter areas.

Soil

Oxalis prefers well-draining soil. You can use a potting mix designed for bulbs or a mix of garden soil and perlite to improve drainage.

Sunlight

Oxalis likes bright but indirect sunlight. It’s a good idea to place them in a location where they receive morning sun and afternoon shade.

Watering

Water the bulbs thoroughly after planting. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. During active growth, water more, and reduce watering when the plant goes dormant.

Fertilizing

Use a balanced, all-purpose liquid fertilizer at half-strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

Temperature

Oxalis prefers mild temperatures. They can tolerate cooler conditions but may go dormant during hot summer months. They typically thrive in temperatures between 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C) while actively growing during spring and fall.

Pruning

If the leaves start to yellow and the plant goes dormant, reduce watering and allow the plant to rest. The leaves may die back, but the bulbs will survive. You can remove the dead foliage.

Pest and Disease Control

Oxalis is generally not prone to many pests or diseases. Keep an eye out for aphids or mealybugs and treat them promptly if they appear.
