Pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) is robust by nature, easy to grow and quick to propagate, thriving both in water and on land. Especially in the south, pennywort can be seen everywhere beside ponds.

Pennywort blooms tiny yellow-green flowers in summer and autumn, and its underground creeping stems grow at an astonishing rate, spreading wherever they reach, making it one of the most attractive and easy-to-grow aquatic plants. Do you know where the pennywort you grow is usually kept? Or rather, what kind of pot is it grown in?

Today I will introduce the pairing of pennywort with ordinary stone flower pots. Large cobblestones can be found everywhere in riverbeds, but did you know what effect pennywort paired with a stone flower pot creates (just look at the pictures)

You can find stones that are relatively easy to work with and make them into flower pots, then plant pennywort in the pot. The growing method can be soil culture or hydroponics, and the survival rate is fairly high either way.

Getting pennywort to fill out its pot is very simple, and paired with different flower pots, the bonsai effect will be completely beyond what you imagined! If you grow pennywort in potting soil, you only need to water it a little every morning and evening. It will even bloom before long, though some people do not particularly like pennywort when it flowers, so just cut off the leaves and it will be covered in leaves again before long.
