Growing Conditions
Herbaceous plant, creeping habit. Very cool looking plant and easy to grow. This plant is often mis-sold as Gotu kola (Centella asiatica). It is edible but not medicinal. Can be a little prone to green fly - check the under side of leaves occasionally. If you find any, use a bit of liquid soap in water in a hand sprayer and mist.
Watering
Water well and regularly during its growing period
Aspect
