Eichhornia crassipes, commonly known as common water hyacinth, is an aquatic plant native to the Amazon basin, and is often a highly problematic invasive species outside its native range.
Water hyacinth is a free-floating perennialaquatic plant (or hydrophyte) native to tropical and sub-tropical South America. With broad, thick, glossy, ovate leaves, water hyacinth may rise above the surface of the water as much as 1 meter in height. The leaves are 10–20 cm across on a stem which is floating by means of bouyant bulb like nodules at its base above the water surface. They have long, spongy and bulbous stalks. The feathery, freely hanging roots are purple-black. An erect stalk supports a single spike of 8–15 conspicuously attractive flowers, mostly lavender to pink in colour with six petals. When not in bloom, water hyacinth may be mistaken for frog's-bit (Limnobium spongia) or Amazon frogbit (Limnobium laevigatum).

water hyacinth is a aquatic plant which was introduced first in India during the British time because of its beautiful flowers.
but this plant proved to be a bad decision because it grows like a weed and very fast.
it consumes all the nutrients and dissolved oxygen from water making the habitat unfit for life of other living organisms.
Hope it helps☺️☺️
