Oxalis suksdorfii

A small yellow-flowered wood sorrel from the Pacific Northwest, mostly the Willamette Valley and the coastal ranges of Oregon. It is a creeping or upright perennial that sometimes roots from stolons. It is hardy, and suits a cool, partly shaded spot outdoors better than indoor culture.
