Sure thing bro! We can sit out back by the pond and totally ignore the fact that there are perfectly good mountain biking trails all around us.

I got them from the Big P up north on McKnight. Every spring they bring in tonnes of the stuff. I've also seen them at Sunny Side garden centre though, but they are pricier there.

By around now the water lettuce and water hyacinth overgrows my pond and I end up harvesting bucket loads every weekend to give away, so if you want a few heads come on by.

That actually made me cry a little bit.

Although with that pond I guess I could see the temptation!
