A Nice Snack - Oxalis

Oxalis in a forest.
 
During May, oxalis blooms like on the photo, but we can already go and taste its sour leaves – this is a good snack for a person, who is just walking through a forest and their head is a little dizzy because of the fresh air. In Taevaskoja, the patients were taken for a walk and during spring the children, who were the patients, would „inhale“ the oxalis – maybe the plant gives something important that we don’t get during winter.

This sour tasting plant can be found in shadowy places in a forest.
