You mean the leaves look small? These have had a hard winter but they are not real big. Last year, there were a couple varieties that were very close in looks as I recall. One actually turned very pink tinged in full sun.

I just happen to have bought another 4 inch pot if it the other day. I think it is is the same as in that pot. I probably have the tag stuck in there somewhere. I will have to look tomorrow.

But I went out and grabbed the tag out of the new one I just bought. It is called Oxalis vulvanicola 'Sunset Yellow." I wonder if the second v in vulvanicola is a typo on the tag. It is my favorite oxalis and very hardy I might add.

Here is a pot I had Zinfandel in last year. I haven't looked at this pot yet to see if anything survived in it. I know practically all my plects died in the freeze. I had a huge collection too. This was my favorite one. Can you tell I love yellow variegated leaves.
