The leaves are 10â20 cm across, and float above the water surface.ichhornia crassipes, commonly known as (common) water hyacinth, is an aquatic plant native to the Amazon basin, and is often considered a highly problematic invasive species outside its native range.
Flower waters (also called hydrolat or hydrosol) are byproducts from essential oil production: for example, when lavender essential oil is produced by steam distillation, the process also creates lavender water. Some of the most popular floral waters are rose water, lavender water and orange blossom (neroli) water.
