Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides
Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides, commonly known as lawn marshpennywort, is a low-growing, perennial plant with rounded, kidney-shaped leaves often resembling tiny umbrellas. It thrives in moist, shaded areas and spreads quickly through creeping stems, forming dense mats. This plant is sometimes used as ground cover in gardens due to its attractive foliage and ability to suppress weeds. It is also known for its medicinal uses in traditional practices, such as treating wounds and inflammation. While generally non-invasive, its rapid growth can sometimes make it difficult to control in certain environments.
