Water Hyacinth

Water hyacinth is just one more of the many edible plants that grow rampant across SEA. We were told that no one bothers to cultivate it, since you can just go pick it for free whenever you want.

We sampled a blossom culled from one of the Nine Dragons (Cuu Long) of the Mekong Delta - a mild taste, but pleasant enough, and the real thing much more beautiful than the photo.
