Wood Sorrel (Oxalis) flowers appear in the beginning of the spring in the Central Valley of California and by mid April they are mostly gone. Both the flower and the leaf are edible and can be consumed in small quantities, for example as a spice in salads. The three leaves of the plant, also referred to as Shamrocks, have been associated with St. Patrick: it is believed that he used these leaves to explain the Holy Trinity to the people in Ireland. In Brazil, it is believed that an Oxalis with four leaves (rare find) will bring you luck.
