Hydrocotyle tripartita ‘Mini’ (In Vitro)

Specifications:

• Plant Name: Hydrocotyle tripartita ‘Mini’ (In Vitro)
• Plant Type: Freshwater aquatic creeping plant
• Origin: Australia
• Height: Approx. 3–8 cm
• Light Requirement: Medium to high lighting
• CO₂: Recommended for compact growth
• Placement: Foreground or midground

Overview:

Hydrocotyle tripartita ‘Mini’ is a compact variant of the popular Hydrocotyle tripartita, featuring smaller, tightly formed clover-shaped leaves and a low, creeping growth habit. Supplied in an in-vitro cup, this plant is grown in sterile laboratory conditions, ensuring it is free from pests, algae, and snails.

Its reduced size makes it ideal for nano aquariums and detailed aquascapes, where it can be used to create a dense, carpet-like effect or to gently trail over hardscape. ‘Mini’ adds fresh green colour and soft texture without overpowering the layout.

Care and Growth:

This plant prefers medium to high lighting and benefits greatly from CO₂ injection, which helps maintain its compact form and encourages horizontal growth. Without CO₂, it may grow taller and less dense. A nutrient-rich substrate and regular liquid fertilisation support healthy development.

Propagation is quick and easy: trim runners or stems and replant them into the substrate. Regular trimming helps keep the plant low and encourages thicker, more even coverage.

• Ideal for nano tanks and detailed aquascapes
• In vitro grown—free from pests, algae, and snails
• Medium to high light required for best results
• CO₂ recommended for dense, low growth
