Deep purple, butterfly-shaped leaves that fold up every evening like tiny origami — the Purple Oxalis has a whole theatrical routine. Give it bright indirect to direct light to keep those rich colors, water when the top inch dries out, and fertilize lightly every few weeks in the growing season. Occasional dormancy is normal; it always comes back better than ever.
