Spent a few minutes yesterday (Sat) thinning out the still thriving
Water Hyacinth and Water Lettuce. Tossed a couple large bucketfuls out.
Wonder when they will start to go dormant?

Preparing for major pond landscaping in a couple weeks.
============================
Mine doesn't go dormant. It just dies after the first good frost and I net
it out. It goes on the compost pile.
