A summer's morning in Sydenham Ward - Kingston Ontario Canada

Dandelion / Pissenlit (``Taraxacum``)

 

Small *yellow-headed wildflower* -- or WEED -- distributed in fields and lawns globally, bane of farmers & gardeners everywhere...

 

But... favorable growing conditions throughout the North American Great Lakes region during a long, temperate `warming-up` (Spring) of 2012 produced a truly *bumper-crop* of DANDELION flowers throughout southern and eastern Ontario -- in field & town alike!

 

In their billions... and trillions ... they shone in glory.

 

This year, the humble *dandelion/pissenlit* added a true presence of its own throughout that gentle, agrarian landscape -- an exuberant carpet of color, that shrill, bright, optimistic yellow of early summer.

 

It was almost like witnessing the colors of Giverney itself! and the hope of good crops to come...

Areas covered (surrounding Toronto Ontario):

I like the layout and the colour used by AC. It's simple and clean cut
