Q: What is water hyacinth?
Water hyacinth is considered invasive throughout the world because it grows very rapidly, and can form thick layers over the water. These layers block sunlight from other aquatic plants - which leads to them dying. The decaying process depletes the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water and as those levels decline, many fish are unable to survive. Often the waters below water hyacinth masses become devoid of life. Harvesting invasive water hyacinth to make craft is a beautiful way to support environmental sustainability and sustainable craft.
