If you put the roots of the water hyacinth into pea gravel, you will get flowers. We found this out quite by accident. The koi were tearing up the water hyacinths so my husband put the WH into bog area of the pond, which is filled with pea gravel as a medium for our bog plants. We have had flowers every year since.
