This is an indicator to know to which zone each plant can winter. Knowing the zone of each plant gives you an idea of the cold temperature resistance when grown in the ground without a roof. 2: -42.7 to -40.0 3: -39.9 to -34.4 4: -34.3 to -28.9 5: -28.8 to -23.3 6: -23.2 to -17.8 7: -17.7 to -12.2 8: -12.1 to -6.7 9: -6.6 to -1.1 10: -1.0 to 4.4 11: 4.5 to 10.0
Rough waterclover, or Marsilea hirsuta, originates from wet or marshy conditions in Asia and Australia. It has green, hairy leaves that give them a rough texture similar to clover leaves and float on the water. This small plant grows from spores rather than flowers and is well-suited for small aquariums due to its minimal light and nutrient-rich gravel requirements. Aquarium keepers favor this plant for its aesthetic appeal and ease of maintenance.

Every 7-10 days, water the Rough waterclover plant moderately, based on the environment. Keep the soil moist but not soaked to prevent root rot. In the growing season, water a little more often, but let the top inch of soil dry out between waterings. In winter, water less to prevent soaking from slower evaporation. Regularly check the soil moisture by putting a finger in; if it's dry, water. Too much water can cause fungal diseases.

Rough waterclover thrives in sun or shade, needing direct sunlight daily. It has some cold tolerance, in zones 5 to 9. It tolerates heat, flourishing in warmth, benefiting from shade when intensely hot. Ideal temperatures are 60-75°F (15-24°C), despite temperature changes occasionally. In winter, guard against frost by mulching or bringing inside. Use well-draining soil, avoiding waterlogging. Rough waterclover adapts to light, but does best with 6-8 hours of sun daily.

Rough waterclover benefits from regular pruning to maintain its shape and promote healthy growth. It is necessary to cut off dead or damaged branches, encourage new growth, and prevent too many branches. The best time to cut branches is before new ones appear. Use a clean, sharp tool to remove old branches at the base. Give the plant water and fertilizer after cutting to help new branches form. Cutting branches regularly will keep Rough waterclover strong for many years.

Rough waterclover thrives best when potted rather than planted in-ground due to its invasive nature. When potting Rough waterclover, choose a container with good drainage to prevent waterlogging. Fill the pot with a well-draining potting mix and plant the Rough waterclover at the same depth as it was in its previous container. Repot Rough waterclover every 1-2 years to refresh the soil and provide ample space for growth. If the plant becomes root-bound, gently loosen the roots before repotting. Mist the plant regularly to maintain humidity levels, and ensure it receives bright, indirect sunlight.

Rough waterclover can be propagated through seeds, division, and cuttings. It is recommended to use a combination of methods for propagation success. Harvest seeds when dry and mature. Care and conditions are key for division, cuttings, and leaf cuttings. Leaf cuttings involve planting individual leaves. Stems can provide cuttings placed in water or soil to develop roots.

Rough waterclover is susceptible to various pests and diseases, including aphids, powdery mildew, and root rot. These pests and diseases can weaken the plant, leading to stunted growth and yellowing of leaves. Aphids are small insects that feed on plant juices, causing leaf distortion and potentially transmitting viruses. Powdery mildew presents as a white powdery substance on leaves, inhibiting photosynthesis. Root rot is typically caused by waterlogged soil, leading to the decay of the plant's roots and eventual wilting. To prevent these problems, it is important to maintain proper plant cleanliness, provide adequate air movement, and avoid flooding. Regularly inspecting the plant for any signs of pests or diseases can help in early finding and management.

Rough waterclover offers two main varieties: V1 and V2. V1 has tiny leaves and thrives in shallow aquatic environments. V2 has huge leaves and prefers deep waters. When picking seeds, select round, solid seeds without signs of harm. For new plants, opt for those with healthy foliage and established roots. Make sure the new plants have no pests or sickness. It's key to pick the type that best fits your water setup to encourage good growth and maturity.
