About this Plant

An attractive perennial that forms a carpet of miniature round leaves edged with cream.

Description:

Leaves: Hydrocotyle plants typically have small, rounded to kidney-shaped leaves that grow on long, creeping stems. The leaves may be green or variegated, depending on the species and cultivar.
Growth habit: Most Hydrocotyle species are low-growing and spread by sending out runners or stolons. This allows them to form dense mats or ground covers in suitable growing conditions.

Flowers: Hydrocotyle plants produce small, inconspicuous flowers that are often white or greenish in color. The flowers are usually held above the foliage on short stems.
Care Guide:

Lighting: Hydrocotyle plants generally prefer moderate to high lighting conditions. Provide them with at least moderate levels of indirect or filtered sunlight if growing outdoors. In indoor settings, provide them with bright, indirect light or use artificial lighting suitable for aquatic plants.

Water conditions: Hydrocotyle plants thrive in moist to wet soil or aquatic environments. They prefer soil that is consistently moist but not waterlogged. In aquatic settings, they can be grown in shallow water or submerged up to a few inches. Maintain water temperatures between 65°F (18°C) and 80°F (27°C).

Soil or substrate: Use a well-draining soil mix if growing Hydrocotyle in containers or garden beds. For aquatic settings, provide a substrate that retains moisture but doesn't become overly compacted, such as a mix of aquatic soil and sand.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist for terrestrial Hydrocotyle species. In aquatic settings, ensure that the water level remains stable and doesn't dry out or become stagnant.

Fertilization: Hydrocotyle plants benefit from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer formulated for aquatic plants or a slow-release fertilizer suitable for terrestrial plants. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates.

Maintenance: Trim back overgrown stems and runners as needed to control the spread of Hydrocotyle plants. Remove any yellow or dead leaves to maintain the overall health and appearance of the plant.
It's important to note that specific care requirements may vary depending on the exact species or cultivar within the Hydrocotyle genus. If you have a particular species or variety in mind, it's recommended to research its specific care needs for optimal growth and health.
