Hortus Botanicus Leiden, Netherlands

Family: Oxalidaceae (Wood-Sorrel family)

Distribution: Madagascar

Comments: This plant, belonging to the Oaxalidaceae family, probably does not occur in the wild any more. As recently as 1956 it has been discovered and described in Madagascar, but it has not been found recently. The plant grows in the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Our specimens have come to us from the former botanic gardens of Wageningen University.
