Abstract

Growth of Oxalis cernua Thunb. was determined in different temperature regimes. Growth occurred in the 55 to 75 F range. Temperature variation promoted growth. Bulbs sprouted more rapidly and uniformly after storage at 35 F than after storage at 95 F. The weed probably is best adapted to areas with winter soil temperatures between 55 and 75 F.
