Default Water Hyacinths

"Jerrispond" wrote in message
...
Theoretically, a bucket of pond water with some Hyacinths in

willoverwinter in
the greenhouse/garage/shed as long as it doesn't gettoo hot/cold. They

can
then be returned to the pond after the last
frost of the spring.

Glad to

see
you wrote the word theoretically....because in all my ponding years I have
never known anyone in zone 7 or colder to sucessfully winter any over.

Even
with grow lights and the whole bit Jerri


ALL of the WH in my VF came from my neighbors pond. He sunk some WH to the
bottom, which is around 3 feet. I am in Zone 6.

BV.
