Brazilian Pennywort on wood?

[satanpie]

Do you thin Pennywort will eventually attach itself to a piece of driftwood if it tied it on there? im looking for a cool plant to train into a peice of wood besides java fern or java moss, im trying to stay South American, thanks.

I don't know if it would attach but you could wrap it around. It might look very cool.

I plant mine, it gets attached to the powerhead if it's left floating. When It get's to the top, I trim it halfway and give the clippings to the LFS.

how about anubias or Fissidens Fontanus??

pennywort does not attach to things, but i agree you can wrap it around the wood and let it grow like that..

i don't think it would attach either but burying in the substrate never did any good for me either as it always rotted.So now it floats

 

[DAVIDFBT]

As long as you have the plant long enough to have some leaves at the top, it shouldn't rot. How many wpgs did you have?

I would staple it to the wood and restaple as needed when they rot......

I would just use a different plant to place on the wood. hydrocotyle was just never meant to be used like that. So it will look pretty weird.

yeah, it was just a thought, im looking for anyhitng that will look cool growing on wood

If you got extra $$ then give Fissidens a try. Its easier to keep, just like any moss, but mainly it doesnt have the typical java moss look.
