This is the first one to bloom. Also my first time to have the white, all the others are lavender.
White Water Hyacinth
Hi Busybee,
That is so cool :) I don't have any water hyacinths, but I did get some lotus seeds and put a cut in each of them, put them in pond mud and water!! The first seed I did has 3 little pads, and I see more of the seeds and sending up little green runners :) Did you grow your hyacinth from seeds?? Will they over winter for you? I know the lotus will not bloom until next year(if I can keep it alive), but I am going to sure try :)
Thanks for the pretty pic :)

tootsie, I got some plants several years ago and they put back out in the spring after the larger leaves die back in the winter. Most of the ones I have are lavender and they multiply like crazy. I have taken 3 five gal. buckets out and put them in the compost drum. I didn`t know these were going to be white when I planted them but it was a nice surprise.
ACKKKKKKKKK, compost bin, OH NOOOOOOOOOO!! Yes, surprizes are the best ever :)
LOL, Yes, tootsie, they multiply too well.
keep em going I have never seen a white flowered one..rare indeed..
:-)
Thanks Kyle,
I plan on these multiplying just like the lavender ones.
