I was wondering if anyone can identify this little thing, I know the things right next to are 4 leaf clovers I am trying to get going, but there are some round leaf things that sprouted next to it.
Use these to try and identify it for sure but unfortunately not all of the species have emersed forms shown.
Realize that the pictures they show of the emersed ones will differ a little if not completely from the ones shown of the submerged forms. Clover is one of the few ground cover I have been looking for because of the fact they have a larger root system than say HC or other small leafed ground covers. They are an excellent choice for gravel substrate.
As for how you got it, probably came in as a small leaf or a small root cluster intertwined with the other plants and it has just taken them time to finally get going really well.
I totally missed your reply fish for all. Thank you for the info. It really spreading now, and I am convinced it IS the clover. As I looked really close at it and the shoot is coming directly off of the original 4 leaf covers I put in there. They were just a few sprigs and most of them died, these were the only ones that made it out of 20 or so stems, they just sat there for the longest and now all of a sudden they are spreading like wilf fire! I am excited to see how they fan out.
see this is exactly what I am getting. WOW I grew something!!!!
I am glad it is growing so well. It usually takes some time for an emersed growth to convert to a submerged form but when it does the plant will normally take off really quick.
