I can't say for sure it's all that safe to eat so much water hyacinth either so definitely make sure your hamster is eating enough actual food for dietary balance and such!

Thanks, Amityville, for your sound advice. It's a really good idea to try hanging it as that would ensure Freya's safety, or to keep it for out of cage time. There isn't actually enough of it left now for it to cause her any harm in terms of trapping, but I am being a bit more generous with her food just now to make sure of good nutrition.
