    Hi guys, I have been trying to root an oxalis cutting 'stolen' on British soil (God have mercy:o) during a visit last June and despite a promising start (little roots have formed) now I am afraid it is not gonna make it...(there is no development whatsoever)... So now what I am asking to you is to ID it without a picture.... ehm.... I know it's difficult but let's give it a try so that one day I might hopefully find it again somewhere.... well the oxalis had rather a drooping habit and was planted in a hanging basket; leaves green and quite small compared to the most common oxalis, rich yellow flowers....soooo pretty....so hard to find here...:( please if you happen to have some seeds you know what to do :D)

    COsidering the efficiency of the italian postal system it may be safer to post seeds rather than plantlets, just a suggestion! ;)
