I have never heard of the penny creeper. I will look on Google to see
if I can find it.

Does it have another name?

Jim

=========================
I looked it up. It's called "Water Pennywort," family Apiaceae
(Umbellifeae) - the parsley or carrot family and is from Brazil. They may
be from Brazil but they live over through the coldest winters. If they get
a chance they'll also invade the earth around the pond. The koi and
goldfish will not eat them.
