Oxalis
Oxalis obtusa
(oks-AL-iss)
This is kind of a rare bulb
that was blooming in the Alpine House at Wave Hill. I am pretty sure that this
is an immature specimen but the species can be quite variable. The flowers are
a unique blend of peach and yellow. It looked to me to be able to glow under the
proper lighting. Looking back on some of the
posts on Oxalis on this site I found some diminutive but beautiful flowers.
I am happy to report our
power came back on. I missed being able to do this blog. The new Long Island
garden got devastated and it will be a long time cleaning up and restoring its
glory.
