The plant is most likely Oxalis regnelli. For some this is invasive weed. Others it is a beautiful woodland plant. It is one of 500 species of Oxalis which be found as fibrous-rooted, bulbous, rhizomatous, or tuberous annuals or perennials.  They are progated from seed or by division.  Some form of Oxalis are called Shamrocks and are given as gifts on St Patrick’s Day.
