Oxalis Triangularis has flourished and is charming

Ornamental plant lovers! Do you already have Aglaonema Monstera, and widow bolong (name please specify in Indonesian non-verbal). If so, it would be incomplete without one of the plants currently bombing in our country.

I myself have one of the ornamental plants that is trending in our area, this plant has just been obtained from a close friend of ours who has just started his new profession as an ornamental plant breeder.

My new plant name

Scientifically this new plant is named Oxalis Triangularis which is well known in Latin, while in our area, especially the Lhokseumawe area, it is said to be a butterfly flower, this name is given based on the shape of the leaves which resemble butterfly wings in flight when the leaves are blown by the wind.

I myself really like it when its leaves are blown by the wind, the soft leaves look alive like a piece of cloth blowing in the wind, its characteristic softness is like a person waving his hand.

Some people also call this plant Love Plant but I don't know the cause of giving such a name, which is certain that I myself will fall in love with him around him, it seems he has a positive value influence on Oxalis (butterfly flower). What is certain is a triangular flower that he can attract everyone's attention if he pay attention.

You will also be interested when you see the elegant flowers. Not to mention if you see the purple leaves, giving the plant a romantic impression. When seen at a glance by the people passing by, it looks like a small trumpet-shaped orchid dangling downwards that emits a refreshing fragrance when it enters the morning, especially during the rainy season.

It not only resembles an orchid plant, but its flowers also resemble the Bungoeng Jeumpa plant typical of the Aceh region which is also very much loved by every Acehnese woman.

Origin of the plant Oxalis Triangularis

When asked by the Indonesian people, especially those in the Aceh area, why was this plant only seen in the Aceh area around 1999? To give the answer is also very simple because he is not a flower that comes from Indonesia, but Oxalis Triangularis comes from South America and South Asia so that he gradually spread throughout the world and arrived in our region.

This plant is very special because it has two different characters at certain times both during the day and when it enters the night. When entering the night its limp leaves will curl up as if to cover itself from the rays of the night, but when it enters the morning until the sun sets, it will spread its wings as if to welcome the sun's emotion. This is what makes an extraordinary wonder that he has.

Therefore, to preserve it, it is very important to put it in a bright location because when it is in a time like the morning, it will be cheerful like a person who has just woken up and welcomes the arrival of the morning.

Meanwhile, to take care of it is not difficult and anyone can develop it. It is easy to grow and it will continue to grow creeping into any vacant location.

Personal experience of the procedures for caring for him

As mentioned above, caring for it is not difficult and is very suitable for beginners, by following the simple tips mentioned below your flowers will continue to grow in the location you want.

1. Requires adequate lighting

Oxalis Triangularis really needs perfect lighting, but don't be exposed to direct sunlight because it can make its leaves torn, physically it is not able to receive direct sunlight, what it needs is a bright room, not its rays.

Likewise with dim or hidden lighting, this plant will not be strong, even if kept continuously in a quiet (dark) location it will die.

So you should plant it in a flower pot and place it on the porch of the house that is not contaminated with direct sunlight without any obstructions against it.

2. How to water it

Basically every plant needs enough water for its development otherwise it will die soon. Unlike this one plant, he doesn't need a lot of water. As for how to water, it is enough to wet the soil surface, if possible, water it 1 day 2 times every morning and evening. In essence, it is enough to just moisten the soil surface, when you water it like other plants it will also die, that is this behavior if it only enters the dry season.

However, when entering the rainy season, don't water it on the soil surface, you just need to wet the flowers or visible leaves, just sprinkle the water, and never water the soil surface, because the Oxalis Triangularis plant doesn't need a lot of water.

Caring for it is not so difficult and not troublesome like orchids and the like. When you understand it, it will continue to grow and it will continue to fill your porch and also a suitable location for it.

Are you interested? Of course you will love it when choosing it as your own favorite plant.
