Claybo Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 I found this plant at the beach a few months ago and thought it looked super cool so I put it in some water and took it home. I don’t know if I posted about it but it’s been growing well and putting out a ton of roots. I however still have no idea what kind of plant it is. I found this plant on a beach in southern North Carolina growing right at the edge of the sand which made me assume it’s pretty hardy. I’ve tried using the image search on Google and searching native nc plants but I still can’t find something that looks the same. The closest I’ve been able to find is possibly some kind of bacopa? If anyone can help me identify this I’d be glad. (it originally started with a darker more woody stem I assume to survive the beach conditions if that helps with identification) it’s really hard to get the iPhone camera to focus on the whole thing btw. And it’s growing squiggly because I knocked it to the left one day and then to the right the next day and it’s still straightening out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seattle_Aquarist Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 Hi @Claybo Based upon the emersed leaf shape and thickness I believe you are correct, it is a Bacopa.....specifically Bacopa monnieri. -Roy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
