Notes:

I am from Northern Kentucky. This plant has been in my family for generations. It has always been in water and the roots like to be very tight (pic 3). My family always called it a nickel plant, but I would like to know more about it, a real name. I recently thought I would try to see how it would do in dirt. It is doing ok (pic 2). Any help is appreciated.

    Looks like a Hydrocotyle, Marsh Pennywort. https://www.google.com/images?q=Hydrocotyle&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&oe=utf8&rlz=1I7TSHA_enUS348&gws_rd=ssl&hl=en&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ei=0nv-U_ToIIa2ogTK24CADQ&ved=0CB8QsAQ
