"Love this plant, but still haven't figured out the right conditions for it. It ends up rotting and dying pretty quickly. I have some in my terrarium that is lasting a bit longer, but still not what I'd like."

Hydrocotyle Leucocephala is a unique aquarium plant that offers vine-like growth and floating bright green, lily-like leaves. Relatively undemanding, Hydrocotyle Leucocephala is similar to other Hydrocotyle species but typically tends to be on the larger side making it suitable for larger planted aquarium tanks or pond-style planted setups. This aquatic plant is easy to keep and is a great beginner plant due to its ability to adapt to a wide range of aquarium parameters. CO2 injection is not required but aids immensely in promoting lush, bushy growth. Growth is also quick and trimming will need to be done to keep it maintained.

"Very happy with the purchase. Plants came well packaged and look healthy."
"I ordered from this site based off the other reviews and let me tell you! Not only did these plants arrive super happy and healthy, they were able to sit for a little while I finished cycling my tank. I love that you don't have to rush to put these plants in your tank because they are so hardy!"
"Nice size, will order again."
"Very satisfied"
"There is an ever-so-slight melt. I’m talking three leaves. The clover leaves are gorgeous—even better in person! I can't wait to add this to my setup!"
"This is an extremely satisfying plant. I have mine floating near the top and it has lily pad vibes and adds beautiful green color and texture."
"Grown submerged but it is transitioning well."
"Arrived healthy and great. Super happy with the purchase"
"This is another cute little plant. It has really reached itself out of the water and also seem to be propagating itself from its leaves with roots attached. I’m planting them in different locations to help them thrive. Again good quality, no melting doing well. Would highly recommend"
