Both the lettuce and hyacinth have been multiplying profusely. I
bought 2 of each in May- and now they threaten to cover my 8x12 pond.

I'll be bringing some of my pond life inside for the winter- Does
anyone have luck overwintering water lettuce or Water Hyacinth
indoors?

I've got a BFF that has wintered over both. Sunny south facing winter seems
to be the secret to her success. I've done WH but never WL. My best winter
sun window is east facing, I put the roots in contact with soil and I think
that's what worked for me. Now the evergreen tree is too tall and big and
only filter sunlight gets in comes in that window during the winter. ~ jan

I've been pulling prolific Hyacinth and water lettuce from my sunny pond
all Summer, but no blooms. Interesting.
