Do you like pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris), fellow flower lovers? Its leaves are round and glossy, like little copper coins, evergreen all year round, and highly ornamental. A small pennywort placed in a study, on a desk, or beside a computer can all create a nice decorative effect.
To grow pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) so its leaves become as big as lotus leaves, round and glossy, you need to remember these 4 words.
What are the 4 words? "Sunlight and water" must never be lacking!
If you want the leaves of pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) to be emerald green, round and glossy, light must never be lacking. You can place it in a sunny spot and give it enough ventilation. This helps the leaves carry out photosynthesis and allows the pennywort to grow lush and full.
During care, once pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) lacks water, its leaves easily become wilted and yellow, and it may even drop leaves. In the current season, sometimes if you do not water for a day, the leaves placed in the sun will look listless. So if growing it in water, make sure there is enough water to cover the roots. If growing it in soil, it is recommended to water once a day. Once pennywort drinks its fill, its leaves will be full of energy and as big as lotus leaves!
If care goes poorly and pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) develops large areas of fallen and yellow leaves, you can start over: cut off all the leaves, first place it in a bright spot with indirect light, and make sure there is enough water. After about seven days, small leaves will grow. Then place it in a sunny spot, and in two months it can fill a pot. It is a very easy-to-grow potted plant.
