In the daytime, the leaves spread out in a star-shaped formation, providing a striking contrast to the plant's white or pale pink flowers that bloom in clusters.
Oxalis triangularis thrives in bright, indirect light and requires well-drained soil. It is known for its low-maintenance nature and is often grown as an ornamental plant in homes or gardens.

Citrus leaf-miner is a grub of a small moth which burrows under the cuticle of new growth citrus leaves and distorts and curls them. This unsightly pest damage can be prevented by spraying new foliage with an oil spray like Eco-Pest Oil as the moth will avoid laying eggs on the oily surface.
The only thing to be done about growth already affected is to trim it off the plant and feed with Fruit & Citrus Food to encourage new growth which you can then treat with oil to prevent the grubs.
