FYI, in the wild most pennyworts grow in muddy areas that are occasionally submerged in floodplains, wetlands, and along pond margins. They can grow even faster in those conditions; they have to, to keep up with the equally rambunctious buttercups, knotweeds, and other marginals. So if you really want a ton of the stuff, set it up in soggy soil with strong light and watch it explode!

Noto i think you are referring to the other species, Hydrocotyle Verticillata

Whoops! You're right, Bk828!

Thanks for the tip. I'll do that with some cuttings!

I guess I won't do that with cuttings! LOL! I'm just glad it's hardy.
