Common Wood Sorrel "Shamrock"




Common Wood Sorrel is a plant from the genus Oxalis. It is sometimes referred to as a shamrock due to its three-leaf clover-like motif, and given as a gift on St. Patrick's Day.   from Wikipedia

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

  2. A very tender and pretty post for St. Patrick's. I definitely also learned something. Again, it is such a lovely picture.

    Sorry to cut in on San Pedro with the strawberry stand. After I asked if I could take a photo, the man asked me "What for?" and I told him for a web site, & he said "when will it be on", so I said on Monday & then I felt I had to.

    Tash - oh no! You are absolutely not cutting in on San Pedro! Mi cuidad es su cuidad! I think it is fun that we find some of the same photo topics interesting!
