I don't think water Hyacinth is illegal here. Mime comes back strong every
year (san diego, zone 24)

There are some regulations, I can't find anything definitive.

There is some info at:

http://www.pondsplantsandmore.com/generic70.html

and there was a move a couple years to restrict/ban just about
anything that would grow in water.

I did find something where they were regulated as weeds and their
importation into the state was banned under certain conditions.

Not nearly as much fun either. At least that's what the big boys tell
me.

I forgot to mention that when it starts to warm up my plants usually
continue to deteriorate, but then come back after some time.

Not sure about water lettuce, but I know Water Hyacinth is a control plant
in many areas. You can find information on those regulations here,
