Why You Should Love Me #3
Macro Mondays theme In the Eye of the Beholder
Dandelions are an important part of our ecosystems and they are good for our lawns. Bees need them as an early source of nectar and pollen before any flowers and blossoms have started to bloom. Their wide spread roots loosen hard packed soil, aerate the earth and help reduce erosion. Their deep taproots pull nutrients such as calcium from deep in the soil and makes them available to other plants. And they provide a bright splash of colour early in the season when everything is still bare. So please do not spray them with them with weed killer! Hmm...
