Eichhornia crassipes

Split them up not too long ago. These two--currently in the front garden--flowered one after another. 17Aug2021 #waterhyacinth #lavender

Because I haven't gotten around to renovating the pond. 26July2021

Thanks, @emch. My neighbor gave it to me.

Love the planter! 😅.

I gasped when I saw the flowers. So satisfying, especially since this plant was a bedraggled mess when I rescued it. (Swipe for proof!)

Very well done!!!! Gorgeous 😁 @misternatureboy

Great results, super rescue

@misternatureboy I have never seen this plant before!! The blooms are so pretty!! 😊

After picking up the pepper, I stopped by the side of the road to investigate a random body of water. I spotted this lone, bedraggled #waterhyacinth and fished it out. I'm gonna rehabilitate this guy and make him healthy and beautiful.

@cyndi, you were right!
