The proliferation of water hyacinth is not a bad thing, if you only want to talk about the visuals. While it’s true that the sea of lavender and green gives a certain calmness to anyone who looks at it, the roots of the water hyacinth is doing the opposite to the living organisms in the lake. Aside from making it difficult for aquatic plants to gain access to light from the sun, the access to food also becomes a huge issue. The mini islands of water hyacinth also make it impossible for humans to enjoy water activities such as fishing, boating, diving, and swimming. With this, lake owners are left with no choice but to get rid of this colorful but unwanted aquatic plant.
