Oxalis ‘Ebony’ Purple Shamrock – 1 Live Plant | 4–6 Inch Bare Root Plant | Dark Purple Foliage | Indoor & Garden Ornamental

Add dramatic foliage color to your collection with a live Oxalis ‘Ebony’ Purple Shamrock. This ornamental Oxalis is prized for its deep purple, triangular leaflets that create striking contrast in containers, mixed plantings, and indoor displays.
One of the most fascinating characteristics of Purple Shamrock is its daily leaf movement. The leaflets typically open in brighter conditions and fold upward during darkness or low light. Delicate five-petaled flowers may also appear during active growth, providing a soft contrast against the richly colored foliage.
Oxalis performs well in containers, decorative planters, and protected garden locations. In climates colder than its outdoor hardiness range, it can be grown as a houseplant or brought indoors before freezing temperatures arrive.
You will receive one live Oxalis ‘Ebony’ plant approximately 4–6 inches tall. The plant ships without a nursery pot.
