Hey, it looks like maybe I DO know how to spell hyacinth! The week wasn't a
total waste.

And for the record, no, I have not been smoking water lettuce! HOWEVER,
like I said, all my water lettuce mysteriously disappeared this winter. One
of my neighbors probably has it hanging upside down in their garage to dry.

[Okay, I clearly don't know how to spell hyacinth].

Approaching my first spring (pond went 'live' last September) -- I put in
some water lettuce and hyacinth in September. The water lettuce is all
gone - don't know where it went. The Hyacinth is all shriveled up, but
bobbing around here and there.

Should I throw it out and replace it, or will it come back from the
half-dead looking plants?

In Zone 10b (Coastal Southern CA), when should I expect to see signs of
life
with this, and my water lilly?

Thanks!
