Dwarf waterclover is a diminutive aquatic plant, reaching only about a few inches in height, suitable for environments ranging from saturated soil to very shallow water. Its key distinguishing features include small, clover-like leaflets that vary in size, with the outer ones being larger. The foliage is marked by a unique pattern: a light-colored oval at the leaflet's base, paired with a darker dot on the inner side. This variegation grants dwarf waterclover an ornamental appeal. The plant exhibits resilience to low temperatures, withstanding up to 20 degrees Fahrenheit (-6.67 degrees Celsius).
