Oxalis survives journey from Illinois to Amarillo
A 46 year old oxalis plant moved from Illinois to Texas in a dresser drawer at 401 Cleveland Street, defying death after two near misses. It sprouted after sun exposure and even with a chicken nibble and a garden transplant, it kept thriving, becoming a stubborn, cherished houseplant.
