Oxalis Flower Bulbs (Pink)

About Oxalis Pink Flower Bulbs

Oxalis is one of the easiest flowering bulbs to grow in India, and this variety produces delicate pink blooms above ornamental clover-shaped foliage. It suits balcony pots, terraces, patios, windowsills and small garden beds - the same easy care as other Oxalis colours.

How to Plant

1. Use firm, healthy bulbs without cuts, fungal spots, or excessive softness.
2. Choose a pot with drainage holes; a 6-8 inch pot suits a few bulbs.
3. Use a light, well-draining mix (roughly 40% garden soil, 30% cocopeat, 20% vermicompost/compost, 10% river sand or perlite).
4. Plant bulbs 2-3 cm deep, pointed side up, with 4-6 cm spacing, then water lightly until evenly moist.

Light, Water & Soil

• Light: 4-6 hours of morning sun is ideal, with light afternoon shade in hotter months.
• Water: only when the topsoil feels dry; avoid standing water and reduce watering during dormancy.
• Soil: loose, fertile, nutrient-rich soil with excellent drainage to prevent bulb rot.

Planting Season & Blooming

Best planting windows vary by region - roughly September-December in North India, October-January in South India, and spring/early autumn in hill regions. Ideal temperature is 15-25C, with sprouts usually appearing within 10-20 days.

Care & Pruning

• Fertilizer: vermicompost every 20-30 days plus a balanced liquid fertilizer twice monthly during active growth; avoid excess nitrogen.
• Pruning: remove faded flowers regularly and trim yellow or damaged leaves; let foliage dry naturally before storing bulbs.
