Hydrocotyle Tripartita Mini Variegated

Hydrocotyle tripartita ‘Mini’ Variegated is a variation of the classic form, featuring the same clover-shaped leaves accented with subtle cream and white tones along the edges. This added contrast brings a lighter, more delicate look while maintaining a similar growth habit to the original.

Often used in the midground, this plant spreads through runners, forming bushy clusters with occasional trailing vines as it continues to grow. The variegated foliage stands out against darker green plants and contrasts beautifully with stone or driftwood!

Hydrocotyle tripartita ‘Mini’ Variegated is slightly more sensitive than the standard form due to reduced chlorophyll, making stable conditions more important for long-term health. Provide medium to high lighting, CO₂ injection, and regular fertilization. With proper care, it will grow slowly and steadily. In lower light conditions, growth may become sparse or the plant may revert to its original coloration. Propagation is simple. Cut along the stem and replant into the substrate to encourage fuller coverage.
