Hydrocotyle acutiloba thrives in consistently moist conditions. Water thoroughly whenever the top 1-2 cm of soil feels dry.

Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water, as this can lead to root rot, but also do not allow the soil to dry out completely. Excellent drainage is key.

Pruning Hydrocotyle acutiloba is generally minimal. Trim back any leggy or overgrown stems to encourage bushier growth and maintain a desired shape. Remove any yellowing or dead leaves promptly.

This also helps improve air circulation around the plant.

Propagation is easily achieved through stem cuttings or division. Cuttings can be rooted in water or moist potting mix.

Division can be done during repotting, separating the rhizomes into smaller sections, each with roots and shoots, and replanting them.

Repot Hydrocotyle acutiloba every 1-2 years or when it becomes root-bound. Spring is the ideal time for repotting. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one to allow for continued growth.
