Will Water Hyacinth Return?
 

[Okay, I clearly don't know how to spell hyacinth].

Approaching my first spring (pond went 'live' last September) -- I put in
some water lettuce and hyacinth in September. The water lettuce is all
gone - don't know where it went. The Hyacinth is all shriveled up, but
bobbing around here and there.

Should I throw it out and replace it, or will it come back from the
half-dead looking plants?

In Zone 10b (Coastal Southern CA), when should I expect to see signs of life
with this, and my water lilly?

Thanks!

It should come back, depending on local circumstances. Mine has for
years, i supplied a local water garden place. A friend of mine,
even closer to the coast lost his for a few years, but then has been
having it survive lately. I'm in Sunset zone 21, not sure of the USDA
zone, 9 I think.

Where did you get the water lettuce? I think that's illegal here
(CA).

Got the water lettuce from California Koi Farms in Fallbrook, CA -- along
with my 6 Koi.

Dang, you're telling me I may have been growing illegal stuff? That's not
the particular variety of 'stuff' that most people around here get in
trouble for growing!

year (san diego, zone 24)
