The Red Veined Sorrel is a low-growing plant that reaches around 30cm (12in) tall. It has bright lime-green leaves with dark red veins, giving its name. If allowed to flower, these are small pink to red flowers on a tall stem.
This plant prefers good light with some shade and moisture-retentive soil. It doesn’t like very hot, dry conditions, therefore keeping on a windowsill and cutting the leaves when required may be best.
