Description

Brazilian Pennywort is prized for its versatility: round, scalloped leaves on trailing stems that will grow happily planted in substrate, left to float on the surface, or grown emersed above the waterline. It’s fast, forgiving, and a great nutrient export plant for tanks prone to algae. A genuinely easy option for beginners who want lush growth without fussing over CO2 or dosing schedules.

Growing it floating or planted in the substrate? See our floating plants guide for how it compares to other options.
