      Bacopa monnieri?

      I suppose this is the name of this plant.
      It's been pretty dry here and all the ponds and retention ponds are/were quite low. So, I went out plant hunting. I found Bacopa, Ludwigia, Pearl weed, Hair grass and even some freshwater clams. But, a Neighbor has a small water feature on the edge of their property, along the road and they have some Bacopa growing on it. It looks really nice so I thought I'd share a couple pics

      The Bacopa looks so nice in a pond/water feature. Thanks for posting!

      Thanks... IF anyone is interested in some, let me know... Just cover shipping. It grows all over in my community in peoples yards and along the roads. Granted, it's not a submerged form but I put some in my tank and within a few days, it was looking great!

      I think there's also some Bacopa caroliniana in that pic... But I'm not plant expert
