This striking floater has beautiful flowers and grows very fast. It forms large populations in a very short time and in many places it is considered an invasive species whose control is immensely expensive. - The water hyacinth can be used as floating plant in large open tanks with strong lighting and relatively high macronutrient concentrations. It is highly susceptible to frost but develops very well in garden ponds during hot, long summers, where it may even flower. It is not hardy and dies off with the first frost. A place in full sun, preferably over loamy ground, and warm, shallow water rich in nutrients are recommendable. Slow growth and light green leaves is a sign of nutrient deficiency or cold. It is also a very decorative plant for mobile containers like watertight pots, bowls or pails on balconies, terraces or winter gardens.
