Oxalis Triangularis
These rather lovely plants can stand being left to their own devices and pretty up any spot in the house. The Oxalis family has gotten bad press over the years as there are certain varieties that will happily take over your garden if left unchecked but not all in this family act the same.

Quirky, Cool and Colourful
We fell hook line and sinker for these bold and sunny bags when we first discovered them. Even more so when we realised they are made out of recycled PET bottles. Sustainable, practical and striking. Tick, tick, tick.
