And here is the true CA state flower....forget the orange CA poppy, it is Oxalis pes-caprae that truly rules! Each and every spring, in sun or shade, good soil or bad, carefully tended garden or neglected vacant lot, this plant covers every inch it can grab. But at least, with its bright green clover-like leaves and tall, nodding spikes of yellow flowers, it's a good-looking weed. It takes an exhausting and vigorous campaign of yearly hand-weeding to keep it under control, at least in my garden.
