Hydrocotyle tripartita
Origin: Southeast Asia
Hydrocotyle tripartita is a fast-growing Asian pennywort with small, three-lobed clover-like bright green leaves that create an eye-catching layered or creeping effect. Extremely versatile, it can be grown as a foreground carpet, a mid-level creeping plant, or even allowed to float at the surface where it produces a lush, natural cover. Supplied as a Tropica 1-2-Grow tissue culture cup with approximately 25 clean plantlets.
Trim regularly to direct growth downward for carpeting or allow to spread naturally for a more wild effect. CO2 injection accelerates growth significantly but is not required. Medium lighting is sufficient. Benefits from comprehensive liquid fertilization. Can be propagated by simply cutting stems and replanting. One of the fastest-carpeting foreground plants available under good conditions.
