medicinal.

This one's growing in my pond.


And this one almost looks like a nasturtium, but I'm pretty sure it's not.

From further research I've done, I think these plants are, respectively, Oenanthe javanica ("Chinese celery") and Centella asiatica ("Indian pennywort" or "Gotu kola"). I'm not positive about the second one, since I see two different looking plants shown in pictures of Centella. Here's what mine looks like.
