There are several water gardens on display at my local garden center. One of them is filled with water hyacinth - I enjoyed seeing it grow and bloom this summer.
This first one was taken in May. Such funky looking plants!
And then in July, the water hyacinth bloomed...
Thanks for visiting and have a good weekend.

Hi Annie, these are really cool plants. Looking at the first photo, it's interesting that they can produce such pretty flowers. I love the colors.
Have a great weekend.
