Bacopa Monnieri Variegatus, also known commonly as Moneywort is a lovely midground stem plant characterized by pairs of light green leaves along with variegated leaves sprouting from the base to the tip of the stalk. Its bright colors are a staple in the aquarium hobby and the plant adds a joyful ambiance to planted tanks. Bacopa Monnieri is also commonly used for medicinal purposes in the Ayurveda holistic tradition of India.
It’s great for beginners because it does not need CO2 injection and only needs a nutrient-rich environment alongside clean water. Good lighting is favorable as it will rot if lighting isn’t sufficient. It can also be grown submersed or emersed and will bloom tiny pink and white flowers above water.
