I found this shy little bloom while inspecting a plot of ground where I want to extend the sidewalk to enable easier access to the pool water shut-off valves at night. I found a flower that looks very close to it that was labeled “Shamrock Hong Kong Clover,” so until someone proves me wrong, that’s what I am labeling it. For Bob’s sake, I am revealing the shocking state of my manicure just to show the flower to scale. So lovely. I’ll transplant it before letting the bricklayers do their job. Well, I myself have proven myself wrong. It turns out those were just tags and the actual name of the flower is Oxalis!
For Cee’s FOTD

it’s adorable and reminds me of the Swedish “Linnea” named after the famous Carl von Linné who invented ways to give the name to lots of plants and categorise them

The RHS say that some Oxalis can be invasive – it is pretty though
