When should I remove my purple-leaved oxalis into green-house?
 

I heard that the purple-leaved oxalis would die in the winter, and
would revive next spring from its tuber. However, I have an access to a
green house in my institute. So ,I hope I can move my lovely oxalis
into green house as the winter comes. But when ? Or rather , under how
many degree Celsius, should I remove it?
Thanks a lot!

You'll first need to find a chart which indicates the freezing temperature
of water in your location. Add 5 degrees because I don't think that plant
wants to cut it too close. Compare this number to temperature predictions on
the weather reports, and get the plant into the greenhouse.

In my location, the weather in winter can hardly drop to 5 degree and I
can hardly see snow for years here. However, I think 5 is too low, 10
degree is the critical point for oxalis!
I am now searching for info about the optimal temperature for my lovely
oxalis, hoping the lovely pretty plant could grow faster!

A Google search turned up so many decent looking results, and you still
haven't found anything? How about the library?
