Cutting back Oxalis plant

I got an Oxalis "Charmed Wine" plant from the store... has anyone ever heard of it? It's a hybrid variety that doesn't like direct sunlight.

When I bought it from the store, it honestly wasn't so great looking; the leaves were mildewy though otherwise very healthy and pretty, but the plant was very thin and lanky looking, so I cut the whole thing back to the soil line... should it grow back looking better than it did before? :(

I known oxalis plant as wood sorrel or as I have it called "sour grass" An edible type.
I had to check into "Charmed Wine" pretty plant. Sorry I have not any information other that they have a dormancy time through the winter. I'm sure other green thumbs will come with additional information for you.
