      Oxalis is one of my sworn foes (stupid thing leaving little bulbils in when you try to yank em out) so that’s pretty rad that there’s a way to really deal with them. I could really go for some therapeutic weeding atm

        My mother used to grow oxalis flava, light pink ones and white ones, as a traditional Dutch flowering bulb

        I love the soft grey leaves. They are very resilient too, surviving harsh sun and drought.

        can you actually kill it?

        Tbh probably not lol :(

        The weed burner for me (this one at least) is sort of half way between pointless and maybe effective-ish sometimes. Safety wise no issues yet but I’d be hesitant using it in summer in the garden. Paths maybe but not on mulch.
