Dandelion


Taraxacum officinale


The Dandelion is probably America's most hated weed and the one upon which vast sums of money are spent trying to eradicate.

I was not aware until researching this article that it is an American native wildflower belonging to the Sunflower Family (Asteraceae.)

We all know what the flower looks like but I could not resist this picture of a nearly perfect seed head. I find the design is just fascinating.
