I'd bet Andrew Broome could, if he's looking and the Japanese member with the huge collection?

Looks like a form of Oxalis oregana to me. I have a similar one in the garden flowering now

Hi Maggi, sorry I'm a too infrequent visitor here, usually only when I want an ID myself :)

no problem. Mine is labelled as O. oregana var. smalliana but I'm not sure if that is entirely accurate

No worries... I guess I just get a bit too 'Mother Hen' when someone isn't around for a while... I worry in case folks are poorly! ::)
 Thankfully any absence is usually caused by the forumist being unbelievably busy eleswhere! 8)
