Over 1 million sold! Professionally cultivated, small water hyacinth, 10 plants (water lettuce)

Ideal as a spawning site and hiding place for killifish.
These are smaller than regular water hyacinths. The roots are short, but they will grow longer as the season progresses and reach the same size as regular water hyacinths.
Notes
Normally, water hyacinths wither in winter, but these have been overwintered using a special method to prevent them from dying.
The color of the water hyacinth roots indicates:
White: Newly grown, with slightly insufficient sunlight.
Purple: Growing from white with the addition of sunlight.
Black: Sufficient sunlight and nutrients.
The order of growth is: leaves turn green with nutrients -> roots grow and develop. The water hyacinths listed here have healthy leaf color, but those with black roots may have roots from the previous year.
Rarely, during shipping, the roots from the previous year may detach from the leaves due to impact. Even if the roots detach, as long as white roots are growing, they will develop properly with sunlight and nutrients, so please understand.
