Eichhornia crassipes

Water hyacinth made it to full bloom today!!!! 😁 So beautiful ❤️. Don't know if the picture shows it, but the pedals are shimmering!! 🥰

Stunning 🤩

Wow😍

Beautiful 😍😍

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! I have grown water hyacinth several years now, it's an annual plant here, and I have never had one bloom! But look at this happy guy now!!! 🥰🙀 The #anticipation! And I'm supposed to be gone all weekend for the Holiday, I hope it's not done by the time I get back. 🤯

That is so cool looking!

I ordered some #waterfeature plants although it's questionable shipping that kind of stuff this late in the year. They came in HUGE and Beautiful!!!! I love them, and so do the fish!!! 🥰

What zone are you in? Do your fish stay outside all winter? I would love a pond like this💙💜🩷🐟🐠🐡

Hi Ruth! I am in 4b and I do have to bring everything inside for the winter, or at least inside the greenhouse with a water heater. I enjoy changing everything up regularly though, so for me, mobile ponds, such as water troughs or blocks with a pond liner are fun to move seasonally! My husband always jokes that my garden fixtures have to be "fluffable" 🤣. @sushiwaitress

@shinygarden584 "fluffable" -- I love it
