Pennywort — Hydrocotyle verticillata
The coin-leaf plant that works beautifully above and below the waterline
Pennywort is one of the most distinctive aquatic plants available — its perfectly round, coin-shaped leaves make it an instant focal point in any aquascape. Unlike most stem plants, it grows equally well fully submerged or emergent above the water surface, making it a rare dual-purpose plant that fits tanks, terrariums, and indoor water gardens alike. Spreads naturally through runners for effortless, organic coverage.
Aquascaping tip: Let runners spread naturally along the substrate for a low carpet effect in the foreground, or allow stems to grow toward the surface for a mid-ground accent. Works beautifully alongside fine-leafed plants like foxtail or hornwort for contrast.

Two ways to grow
1. Fully submerged in aquariums
2. Emergent in terrariums or pond setups
Most aquatic plants are strictly one or the other. Pennywort thrives in both — use it in a planted tank as a foreground or midground accent, or let it grow above the waterline in a paludarium, indoor water garden, or outdoor tub pond. The same bundle works for either setup.

Customer questions answered
(Q) Do I need CO₂ injection to grow this successfully?
= CO₂ is optional, not required. Pennywort grows at a medium pace without it under medium to high lighting. Adding CO₂ will accelerate growth and keep leaves a brighter, richer green — but most hobbyists grow it successfully in standard low-tech setups. A weekly liquid fertilizer is the more impactful upgrade if you want to improve results without CO₂ equipment.
(Q) Can I really grow this outside the water, and how does that work?
= Yes — Pennywort is a true amphibious plant. When grown emergent (above the waterline), it produces slightly larger, more upright leaves and often grows more vigorously than when fully submerged. You can place it in a paludarium, a shallow water dish, or an outdoor pond or tub garden with its roots wet. It's the same plant shipped to you — no special emergent variety needed.
(Q) How does it spread, and will it take over my tank?
= Pennywort spreads through horizontal runners along the substrate — new plantlets emerge naturally a few inches from the parent stem. Growth is medium-paced, so it fills in gradually rather than explosively. You can let runners spread freely for a natural carpet effect, or trim and redirect them to keep it contained. It will not aggressively crowd out neighboring plants the way fast stem plants sometimes do.
What's included: 1 bundle of Pennywort (Hydrocotyle verticillata), 1–4 inches, ready to plant in substrate or place in an emergent setup upon arrival.

Fun, both heartwarming and heartbreaking
Format: Kindle
Only my second first person written selection, I am still getting used to that aspect, but unlike my first, I enjoyed that the story was told through both MCs. A great enemies to lovers, forced proximity, fated love etc, that resonated to me. There were some small twists that I could see coming, but also a few that I didn’t quite see until the characters were also seeing. Personally, I am more interested in the story than the spice, but with that said, it was well seasoned! I am kind of new to the spice world so I can’t say for sure how this would rate, but it definitely had some heat. I am very glad I happened across this author, and I do plan on also reading the next book….if nothing else, just to see for myself the “transformation” of the characters I’ve grown to love!

😍😍 BEST DEBUT NOVEL EVER
Format: Paperback
I’m having trouble finding accurate words to describe the way this book made me feel, but I am going to do my best.
To start off with basic elements, the character and world building are phenomenal. I feel a strong bond to not only the two main characters, Ara and Rogue, but to each and every character introduced throughout the book. The author did a stellar job of giving each of them unique personhood. All of the scenes are beautifully described. So much so that throughout the entirety of the book, I could see every scene: the towns, the castles, the meadows, the landscape. I have had difficulty with this and with distinguishing between outlying characters while reading in the past, but I did not have to think to remember details of world or character building because they flowed naturally within the story and were described well. I have read book series before that made me want to be a part of that world, but I actually felt like I got to step into Auryna and Ravaryn!
The plot twists!! Although this is not a suspense novel, it still had me on a rollercoaster of emotions and on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I haven’t cried actual tears over a book since I was in high school (and I’ve read a LOT). This book finally broke the floodgates in the final few chapters. Multiple times. And we love a good cliffhanger. It truly made me FEEL.
THE SPICE is a solid 3.5/5. Some of the scenes had me flushed, some had me taking notes, some just had my jaw slack and my mouth hanging open. Bravo, JD Linton, bravo.
The relationships: friendships, family, romantic, ALL of the relationships in this book have so much meaning. The author does a great job at making you feel the love, the anger, the peace, the frustrations, the safety, the familiarity, etc. between the characters.
Ara and Rogue. I can not say enough and I also do not want to say too much. Just know that I feel like I know them both, to their core. I know what their childhood looks likes, their darkest moments, their biggest fears, their dreams and passions, what they want in life… The POV switches were seamless. I am so happy this author decided to let us see from both sets of eyes.
I can not wait for book two after that cliffhanger. And there is SO much potential for at least one prequel, I can’t wait to see where this author goes! I hope this series continues and flourishes. Fingers crossed!

Amazing!
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
This book was phenomenal, I devoured it within a few days! For this being a debut novel, it is fantastic and I would’ve thought the author was a seasoned author. I have zero complaints about this book.
Let me start by saying that the world building was phenomenal. I could picture everything in my head because of how detailed it was — that’s how good it was written. And I absolutely love the “captive/captor” trope so much, it’s become one of my favorite tropes, so I was pleasantly surprised to see that this book had that.
I loved the banter between Rogue and Ara — they’re both snarky and witty, plus with the romantic tension, it made the dialogue that much better. Speaking of romantic tension, yes there is spice but not so much of it that it overrides the plot, which I loved. For me, this would probably be on the 3/5 level of spice.
This book had a ton of plot twists and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

High on Tropes and Satisfaction
Format: Kindle
This is a great Romantasy book full of action, adventure, and everything you look for in this genre.
I won’t lie: it does kinda feel like the author found every common trope from every successful book of this kind and threw them all into this novel. But if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Especially in romance, there’s a large audience who has specific expectations, and they want them every time. Nothing wrong with that and many times I’m one of them.
I have no idea what defines a spoiler honestly, so
spoiler alert!!!!!!!
Tropes include:
Only one bed at the inn/bar
Dissatisfaction with life before hunk appears
Lost royalty
The chosen one
Montage of dress up time followed by shocked hunk
Forbidden romance between two from rival peoples
Power that cannot be controlled, simply guided/asked
Gathering intel at the inn/bar
FMC who knows how to fight/use weapons well
There’s probably more but no need to list them all.
Good story and I would recommend!

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5
