A few lonely leaves of pennywort (Centella asiatica) picked up at the flower shop entrance and casually tossed into the soil grew into a full pot in two months

Since I fell in love with growing flowers, I really enjoy going to the flower shop in my spare time. Seeing beautiful flowers lifts my mood so much. Passing by the flower shop entrance, I picked up a few lonely pennywort leaves, took them home and tossed them into the soil, with rough and casual care, and in two months they grew into a full pot. It really blew me away!

The leaves of pennywort look very much like little copper coins, which is why it is named pennywort. It also carries very good symbolism, representing rolling wealth and endless good fortune. Its leaves are emerald green and glossy, and it is highly effective at decorating a home. Placing it on a balcony, a table, or a windowsill at home is very suitable.

This is the pennywort I had just picked up, with only a few lonely leaves, and they were even turning yellow. I had originally picked it up just for fun and never expected it to grow well at all. I never imagined that in two months it would grow into this. It was so surprising. Is pennywort really this easy to grow?

The soil I used to care for the pennywort was dug up from the vegetable garden in my neighborhood. I happened to run into an older gentleman, and he said the soil in the neighborhood vegetable garden was especially good, containing decomposed pigeon manure with very rich fertility, and it was especially suitable for growing flowers! I think the reason the pennywort grew so well has a lot to do with this soil!

If you do not have this kind of soil at home, you can also add some decomposed chicken manure or other poultry manure to the soil, as the fertility is very rich. But be careful not to add too much, as it can easily burn the roots, and it must be decomposed manure!

Just place it in a spot with plenty of sunlight and water it once every two days to keep the soil moist. The growth of pennywort cannot do without water and light. These two basic conditions must be met for it to smoothly grow into a full pot.

Pennywort is really so easy to grow, it fills a pot with hardly any effort. Do you flower lovers like pennywort?
