that it would be easy to clean. Have lots of water hyacinth but didn't know I could overwinter it inside, I guess in a bucket somewhere! Thanks, Kathy, St. Louis

They overwinter fine in buckets indoors. If you have an unused freezer chest
you can plug the drain with silicone,
fill it up with water and overwinter the hyacinth in it outdoors. During days above freezing you can open the list for light and heat then close it at night for insulation. Also, cover the open top of the chest with a sheet of thick plastic or glass for additional heat during cold days then cover it with rigid foam at night or remove it and close the lid of the chest when freezing temperatures happen.
