Adavisus I can not understand why I have no luck with water hyacinth or water lettuce in my pond even in the floating ring .To keep them safe from koi ,I take them out and put them in a concrete mixing tub and they grow great .My pond is in full sun and I here they like sun but they shrivel and turn brown .Is it because there is not any nutrients in the pond to help them .I know in the concrete tub I put lava rock on the bottom and nothing but water and the plants and yet they grow healthy and the water is always crystal clear in the tub .There really can't be any nutrients in there for them and the tub is in full sun also
this is a pic of them in the concrete mixing tub
