Aquatic plants.?

I have a water hyancinth in a tank and it gets direct sunlight. My question is how would I know if its reproducing? Should I be seeing seeds on the bottom of the tank or something?
Answers:
yes there should be some seeds on the bottom but give it some time
they don't make seeds, they make small plants that are attached to the mother plant by a stem
I wasn't able to find your particular species of plant from this very awesome guide I normally reference, but perhaps you know it by some other names that you could lookup yourself. Go to plantgeek.net. It is the best site for Aquascaping and Aquatic Plant information. Join the forums on the main page, and then use their plant guide. Both are free - hope to see you out there, and good luck!
