Fire Fern is not a fern at all, but a vividly colored Oxalis from northern South America. The leaves are deepest purple-red and bright yellow flowers are borne continuously during warmer weather. An excellent pot plant suitable for a windowsill garden or decorative container. Matures at about 8 in tall.
