The only source I've had for water lettuce and water hyacinth has been the
kindness of people here in the group.


Ebay?


Yeah there's ebay and online stores, but you never know what you are
getting, or if it'll even live.

I've ordered from 2 online plant stores, and in both cases, over 75% of the
plants they sent died, and need to be replaced. They were both good about
replacing them, but again, half of what they sent died again anyway.

Direct Gardening was one, and the other was Michigan Bulb, very large
popular dealers.

I got more living plants from Muffin ast week then dealing with both those
places, and then going through the hassle or getting them to honor their
guarentees.

And after dealing with that mess with BOTH places, UV solutions are mighty
tempting.

Course for now, my pond is algae free, so I don't have anything to worry
about for a little while..
