Hydrocotyle leucocephala ‘Variegata’ is an eye-catching variation of Brazilian Pennywort prized for its rounded leaves featuring attractive green, cream, and pale yellow variegation. Its graceful trailing stems can be planted in the substrate, allowed to grow around rocks and driftwood, or grown near the water surface for a natural cascading effect. Moderate to strong lighting helps maintain its attractive variegation, while balanced nutrients and supplemental CO₂ can encourage healthier, denser growth. Regular trimming promotes branching and maintains a compact appearance. Easy to propagate from stem cuttings, this colorful variety adds brightness, texture, and unique contrast to freshwater planted aquariums.
