Variegated Pennywort (Hydrocotyle leucocephala ‘Variegated’) is a bright, fast-growing aquarium plant with round, scalloped leaves patterned in green and creamy white. Its coin-shaped foliage gives planted tanks a softer, more playful look while adding contrast against darker greens, driftwood, rock, and black substrate.

This plant can be used as a floating plant, trailing accent, or rooted stem-style plant depending on the layout. In aquariums, it works well for creating light shade, surface cover, shrimp grazing areas, and a natural leafy backdrop without needing a difficult high-tech setup. The variegated form is especially useful when you want a plant that stands out without relying on red coloration.

Our Variegated Pennywort is selected for healthy growth and aquarium use, giving you a colorful live plant that can adapt well when given stable water, decent light, and room to grow. Because pennywort is naturally flexible in how it grows, it is a strong choice for aquarists who want a lively plant that can be shaped into different areas of the aquascape.
