Bacopa Monnieri 'White'

[JacksonL]

Has anyone had much experience with this plant?
A local shop has just received stock of this version of bacopa, and I’m struggling to find many reports of people’s experiences growing it.

I’m a bit gun shy when it comes to white variants of plants that seem new to the hobby, and it’s not cheap so hoping to hear from someone whose grown it before I take the plunge!
Does it hold it’s white form? How much more sensitive than regular bacopa is it?

I think maybe @Dennis Wong has it or tried it? I do know that many “white” forms retain that color when nitrates are on the low to 0 side, I think excess nitrogen will encourage more green growth than white.

For $90AUD I'd be nervous to try it either you're about to lose money, or it's about to be an investment that will pay itself off many times over (if you can market/advertise that you have it, and can also grow it well).

I've had it in my tank for three weeks now. I really wanted a white plant, so I decided to give it a shot since you can find it here in Italy now as a tissue culture for 10 euros. Unfortunately, I don't have much to report—it’s basically been at a standstill. My impression is that it needs more light, and either way, it seems to be a pretty slow grower. I’m also waiting to see if anyone else has some tips or feedback.
By the way, I've been seeing Hygrophila polysperma 'White' by Tropica all over the place lately, so you might be able to snag that one at a more reasonable price.

I actually just planted some 3 weeks back. Seems to be growing white leaves so far, although it is a bit on the sensitive side, fresh aquasoil tends to burn their roots although they seem to be pretty aggressive rooters. I would assume they require high light to maintain their white colour. I had some stems that were green but have since turned white due to high lighting
