We love our oxalis triangularis and currently have them in stock!
There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of Australian based care tips around aside from excellent advice from , so here's a quick rundown of how we look after ours;

Light: Bright as you have. Direct is fine (despite what you read from US and EU sites). I have one in a north/west facing window and only move it away if we get a week of 35.c in summer. The one pictured above sits 1.5m away from a wall of north/east facing windows all year.
They will survive in lower light, but won't be as bushy, will have longer stems and will grow much slower.

Substrate: they are a bulb, so free draining mix is ideal. We use 2 parts premium potting mix to 1 part perlite.

Watering: top and bottom water to soak entire substrate once soil is approximately half dry. The one pictured gets watered weekly, but is quite tight in its pot and is in the free draining soil mix above.

Feeding: feed with a liquid fertilizer such as foliage focus or complete fert, plant food or indoor plant food monthly to bi-monthly.

I'll do a seperate post on how to propagate these guys easily next time we do some!
