Name that plant!

[NjF]

This is a brand new game where we test the knowledge of this ng's most
faithful players...

No... Actually I was looking for some help in identifying a plant. I
picked this one up at a LFS. It was lumped in with the other
"assorted potted plants," so no help there. I've scoured the NET
looking for pictures of various plants with no luck. You guys are my
final hope. Don't let me down (please).

The plant is green, and has leaves. (pretty descriptive, huh?)
The leaves are in a lily pad shape and as of late it has been sending
many little roots out of each of its nodes? I'm new to the aquarium
world and not yet familiar with the plant speak.

Hopefully someone can answer based on this crude description. Thank
you!

Christine,

SteveG was kind enough to point me to a link of a picture of
Pennywort. That was the plant I was describing. I definitely
appreciate your desire to help!
