Creeping Woodsorrel - Oxalis corniculata Oxalis corniculata is edible and tastes sour. It&#039;s good for use steeped in tea or chewed raw. Ingesting large quantities is not a good idea though because the plant contains oxalic acid.<br />

"Oxalis corniculata", the creeping woodsorrel, is a somewhat delicate-appearing, low-growing, herbaceous plant in the family Oxalidaceae. It has a narrow, creeping stem that readily roots at the nodes. The trifoliate leaves are subdivided into three rounded leaflets and resemble a clover in shape.
