I have looked and can't seem to find the name of this. It looks like a purple clover to me, the flowers are a small bell shape and very pretty pink.

It is Oxalis ... Looks identical to one I have but your flowers look white, mine are pink ... foliage looks like mine though. Here's a link to one in Plant Files: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/1241/

This photo of one of mine the flowers look white but are actually a very pale pink. I think this is the plant you have.

You are welcome! I love this plant too. It does go dormant and disappears sometimes and I forget about it. Then all of a sudden I will see little sprouts and wonder what the heck is sprouting in that pot? Nice surprise when it's the wood sorrel again!
