Oxalidaceae, also known as the wood sorrel family, is a diverse group of plants that can be found in various parts of the world. One such species is the Broadleaf woodsorrel (Oxalis latifolia), which blooms beautifully in the outskirts of Mexico City during August. The close-up view of its flowers on page 79 reveals intricate details captured through watercolor, pen, ink, and pencil. Another member of this family is Sorrel or Spinach dock - Rumex acetosa (Oxalis), depicted by Leonhart Fuchs in his notable work "De historia stirpium commentarii insignes" from 1542. This colored engraving showcases the beauty and significance of Oxalis within botanical history. Wood sorrel leaves (Oxalis acetosella) are a common sight in Scotland's forests. These cut-out leaves add to the lushness and diversity found on the forest floor. With no people present, they symbolize nature's growth and resilience. Creeping Woodsorrel (Oxalis corniculata var. Atropurpurea) displays a unique purple-leaved form while flowering gracefully. Its vibrant colors catch our attention and make it an attractive addition to any garden or flower bed border. The Mexican Wood-sorrel (Oxalis tetraphylla) Iron Cross variety exhibits stunning leaves up close in Ellerstadt, Rhineland-Palatinate. The intricacy and symmetry seen here highlight nature's ability to create captivating patterns even at a microscopic level. In another historical depiction by Leonhart Fuchs from De historia stirpium commentarii insignes, we see Sorrel or Spinach dock - Rumex acetosa (Oxalis). This watercolor illustration dates back to 1542 and showcases Fuchs' admiration for Oxalis' beauty within plant history.
