Photo of Hyacinths in my pond, blooms

This is a picture of ten days before. I'd allowed the hyacinths to cover most of the surface of the pond for summer so that it would suppress the growth of thread algae. It looks like it did help. I removed about 20% of it and water was quite clear as I guessed. Hyacinth blooms are really lovely. I don't know much about them, but I wonder if they come in different shades. Actually, it grows wild in natural lakes and ponds in the area and these are a big problem maintaining things.
