"I received my plant packaged nicely and arrived healthy. It’s been in my tank for a week and has already grown so much! I love the way some leaves float to the top of my tank. Thank you!"

Brazilian Pennywort is an upright grower that propagates through runners and branches. Quick growing and elegant, it is a haven for tiny fish and baby shrimp! This potted variety of "Hydrocotyle leucocephala" is excellent for bare-bottomed tanks!
Pennywort has the added advantage of being a bog type plant. Meaning, it will grow and grow towards your light source until it grows right out of the water! It will eventually just drape out the side of your tank, adding layers of stunning, dimensional foliage.
Rooted, potted Pennywort is 6-10" tall.
EMERGENT-GROWN OR SUBMERGED-GROWN
Growing Suggestions:
- Medium light needs
- Low tech, unheated aquarium, 60-80F
- Fast upright growth rate
- Root tabs recommended: Nope
- Elegant shape and shelter!
As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
