This little plant has very similar flowers to those of Procumbent Yellow-sorrel but its leaves are dark bronze. It also scrambles across waste ground and gardens but tends to prefer a greenhouse habitat to being outdoors, braving the elements. It is a garden escape, somewhat invasive and is known to climb. An annual or perennial, it belongs to the Wood-sorrel family.
I first recorded this plant in Coolcots, Co Wexford in 2012 when Mary Foley, a co-member of the Wexford Naturalists' Field Club, showed it to me growing and invading her greenhouse.
