Plant ID?

[alia258]

So, I took these two plants home to keep as window decorations. They've been growing nicely, but I wanted to know what they could be. They came from a spring water river, clean enough to drink, in gardener canyon. Any ideas guys?

The one on the right appears to be melting, any ideas on that one? Will prescribing root tabs help?

This pic shows their growth better:

When I changed the water out, the righ plant went limp and couldn't hold itself up:

I use the water from my fish tank so that the plants have some CO2 to use to breathe and stuff.

The taller one with the clover-ish leaves looks like a lawn marshpennywort

 

[alia258]

But the pennywort leaves look like this:

And my plant looks like this:

I drew a pic explaining the difference in the leaves:

I don't think it's pennywort, unless my plant is just the young version of pennywort. And since you're here, any ideas on the other plant?

 

[paytertot]

Not marsh pennywort (two words) lawn marshpennywort (all together). They're different plants.

 

[alia258]

Oh, I looked up lawn marsh pennywort, I'll look up lawn marshpennywort! (I thought it was a typo)

 

[paytertot]

Oh wait! No that could be just a water clover, oops

 

[alia258]

I see what you're saying now! These are the pics I got:

Its insane how much o a difference a space made! Any ideas on the other plant? You're really good at this! ^^

 

[alia258]

Hmmm, I'll have to research water clover as well now! ^^

 

[alia258]

I'm sure it's not water clover, these are the pics I got:

The second one is very pretty though, I might make it my phones screensaver ^^

 

[paytertot]

Lol sorry its late, I'm tired. But yea I thought it was the lawn mp. I'm not sure about the other one though

 

[alia258]

Well, we have one with an ID now! Thank you! Maybe you should sleep or something since you're tired? What time is it for you right now? For me it's only 8:10! ^^

 

[paytertot]

It's only 9:13 but I've been up a while. Now I want to know what that other plant is tho haha but now the pics won't show -.-

 

[alia258]

It's a light green color and has 'layers' of leaves about an inch apart, and there's small roots growing at the breaks in the plants on the bottom 3 inches. The leaves are 'melting' for some unknown reason. Does that help?

 

[paytertot]

Well one of the reasons some plants melt is because they are grown emersed. I have an amazon sword which are normally grown emersed, so when you out them in a tank submerged, the old leaves melt and new ones come in. But since you found them in water, that can't be it. Other things that cause melting are deficiencies in certain nutrients

 

[alia258]

I have some plant root tabs, would it be smart to put one in and see what happens?

 

[paytertot]

Yes I would

Is that like an ivy? I looked up the pictures too and one picture it was growing on rocks. I like the way it looks. The lawn marshpennywort that is.
