Oxalis dillenii, also the southern wood-sorrel and slender yellow woodsorrel, is part of the wood-sorrel family Oxalidaceae, in the genus Oxalis. Like other Oxalis species, the leaves of this plant resemble clover leaves, with three leaflets. Flowers have five yellow petals that are 4 to 10 mm in length. Leaflets are 1 to 2 cm wide with pointed hairs. Fruits are rather brown and 1.5 to 2.5 cm. It is often considered a weed, and can be found worldwide, but likely originated in North America.
