Just Dandy
Dendelions suffer from our dismissal and inattention of the ordinary, yet are hardly ordinary close in. Were they 2 feet tall with six inch blossoms there would be scores of cultivars and they would populate gardens. They are asters, important to early spring pollinators, and said to be nutritious, vitamin rich, perhaps even medicinal. We humans eradicate them with toxic enthusiasm from lawn and golf course, as though there is no cost for such activities, though, likely, there is. This one is off the beaten path, free to catch the sun and fulfill its role in nature unmolested.
