Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top centimeter of soil feels dry. Reduce watering slightly during the dormant period, but avoid letting the soil dry out completely.

Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage.

Pruning is minimal for Oxalis acetosella. Remove any dead, damaged, or yellowing leaves as they appear to maintain plant health and appearance.

If the plant becomes leggy, you can trim it back to encourage bushier growth. No specific pruning is needed for flowering or fruiting.

Oxalis acetosella can be propagated by division or from seed. Divisions are best done in early spring or fall when the plant is dormant. Sow seeds in pots or trays of well-draining compost in autumn or early spring.

Keep the soil moist and provide a cool environment for germination.

Repot wood-sorrel every 1-2 years, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Spring is the ideal time for repotting, just as new growth begins. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering issues. Ensure adequate drainage holes.
