IN BOWLS WITH SOIL. 
Lakeview Water Hyacinths may 
also be used indoors as a window 
or table decoration. Use a water- 
tight bowl or pot at least 4 inches 
deep and 4 inches or larger in 
diameter for one plant. Or two or 
more plants can be placed in one 
larger container. The bowl should 
be half full of good soil then filled 
with water and the top can be cov- 
ered with clean gravel or colored 
chips, etc., as desired. Be sure to 
keep the bowl constantly full of 
water and keep the plants in front 
Lakeview Water Hyacinth of a window where they get sun- 
as a Potted Plant in the light when possible. Also wash off 
Home. Size of this bowl the leaves occasionally with a wet 
434” top x 444” deep. rag. 
IN BOWLS OF WATER ONLY. Floating Water Hya- 
cinths live on the nourishment their roots collect from ele- 
ments dissolved in the water and from floating particles in 
the water which adhere to their roots. If kept in bowls of 
pure water the plants cannot thrive unless given additional 
nourishment. Any commercial fertilizer used must be ap- 
plied in EXTREMELY small quantities as the plants are 
very sensitive to such stimulation and can easily be burned 
by a slight overdose. 
FOR USE IN AQUARIUMS. Lakeview Water Hyacinths 
have extremely clean roots when shipped and make very 
attractive Aquarium Plants. Many egg laying varieties of 
Tropical Fish as well as all adult Goldfish will use the roots 
to spawn on. (See inside.) Frequently several small plants 
will be produced from a floating Water Hyacinth in an 
aquarium especially if it is near a window. 
WHERE NO POOL IS AVAILABLE a common galvanized 
wash tub sunk in the ground with 3 inches of rich soil in 
the bottom and then kept filled with water will grow 
Water Hyacinths beautifully if placed where they will re- 
ceive considerable sunshine. For use in pools see other side.
