Bacopa : planted in greenhouses
Bacopa, also known as sutera, is a lovely plant. It brings beauty to gardens, patios, and balconies. Certain types even thrive in home aquariums and artificial ponds. You can buy bacopa seedlings at garden stores. You can also grow them yourself from seeds.
This article will explore bacopa in detail. We will cover popular types and how to care for the plant. We will also discuss how to use it in garden design.
Bacopa often grows as an aquatic plant in nature. It is therefore well-suited for ponds and aquariums. This plant originated in South Africa. You can also find it in the Canary Islands and parts of Asia.
The trailing variety of bacopa is very popular for decorating terraces and gardens. It can be grown as a climbing plant. It also looks great in greenhouses and mixed flowerbeds.
Bacopa shoots can grow to be about 20-24 inches long. The plant creeps along the ground or hangs down from containers. Small, five-petaled flowers grow from where the leaves meet the stem. Bacopa blooms so much that people in Britain call it "snowflakes."
The flowers are small. They can be single or double, depending on the type. They close up when it gets dark. White flowers are the most common. Pink and purple flowers are also available.
