Water Hyacinth
JLMO-852
Common WATER HYACINTH
Eichornia crassipes
Fam: Pontederiaceae. Non-native UK species, brought into the garden trade in the United Kingdom, becoming invasive, choking waterways and outcompeting our native plant species. Once established, it is very difficult to eradicate.

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot, John Mason transports us to a whimsical world where water hyacinths reign supreme. Bursting with vibrant purple hues, these enchanting aquatic plants take center stage in their own floral spectacle. With their delicate flowers and luscious green leaves, they effortlessly transform the serene waters into a mesmerizing tapestry of color. But beware! Behind their breathtaking beauty lies an invasive force to be reckoned with. These mischievous water hyacinths have stealthily made their way across the United Kingdom and Europe, leaving no pond or lake untouched by their presence. Their relentless growth has earned them the title of "aquatic weeds" as they compete fiercely for space against native species. Yet amidst all the chaos caused by these purple invaders, there is something undeniably fascinating about witnessing nature's resilience at work. As we gaze upon this print from Ardea Wildlife Pets Environment, we are reminded that even within our carefully curated ecosystems, unexpected surprises can arise – like a sea of purple blooms taking over our beloved waters! So let your imagination run wild as you delve into this extraordinary photograph; marvel at the sheer audacity of these water hyacinths as they conquer new territories and challenge our perceptions of what it means to be a weed in nature's grand design.
