This is a truly new version of Oxalis pes-caprae which seems to be an intermediate between The normal Oxalis pes-caprae and oxalis pes-caprae var. pleniflora.
Now this is very interesting in my opinion becasue these plants cannot hybridize becasue they do not reproduce by sexual reproduction.
What explanation is behind this population (A couple of plant-clusters over 10mx10m area)?
