Did you know: Water hyacinth is a free-floating perennial aquatic plant (or hydrophyte) native to tropical and sub-tropical South America.
Shipping Expectations: Water Hyacinth is illegal to possess and cannot be shipped to AL, AR, AZ, ID, LA, FL, MN, MS, NE, PR, SC, TX, WI, Chicago, and Shasta or Sacramento counties in CA.
Please note that there is a very good chance of you receiving Hyacinths without flowers. With proper care, some heat, and a little luck, the Hyacinths will flower.
This plant may ship with trimmed roots as sometimes they tend to fall off during transit due to heat. In case roots fall off upon receiving them, just place them in your pond and give them a couple of weeks so they can re-establish themselves.
Don't forget: Many PIK customers enjoy using the Nycon Floating Plant Islands to help control the growth of the Water Hyacinth and help prevent them from floating away.
