Due to lack of time I've neglected my yard for years now. The first year we had all kinds of weeds. The second year the grass got too tall and flopped and matted over. Now it is absolutely beautiful, it never gets too tall and has a mixture of clover ,mint, lemon balm, grasses, wildflowers, wild strawberries and carrots, and yes dandelion.

I've always considered them 'honey-filler', as bees will often 'fill' their pollen needs early in the season by hitting all the dandelions first...like 'fillers' in foods. The can also substitute in garden salads for using spinach leaves, as they are a 'bitter leaf'...but when chopped and mixed with iceberg loose leaf lettuce, can 'balance' a leaf salad rather-nicely, while providing a LOT of calcium to your diet (at the cost of Spinach's Vitamin K and Iron). Since I'm a BIG advocate of honey bees...I figure 'let them have their dandelions'...at least until the white clover comes in...short of fruit tree blooms, white clover makes the BEST honey!

Dandelions remind me of when my kids were little. Each of them brought me dandelions they picked in the yard and they were SO proud! I taught them the importance of dandelions and the job they do for our Earth... and how delicious they can be. We went out to the back yard (where I had a huge garden and never EVER used pesticides) and picked dandelions and fried them up. That was the most fun thing... the kids got a huge kick out of it. So I love the lowly dandelion and allow them to live where and when they spring up...

When I was a kid my grandmother used to send me out to the field behind her house to pick them. I'd come back with a brown paper shopping bag filled and she would make us a salad with vinegar, olive oil, sliced tomato and fresh Italian bread. If my mother wasn't around she would pour me a glass of wine and we had the perfect lunch together. 😀

After the rhodos and azaleas start to bloom out I remove the blooms aggressively and now feel better above leaving the plant for my soil

In Spring, dandelions are a good source of food for pollinators. The flowers can also be used in making dandelion wine. In the Summer, the leaves, certain leaves, make a healthy salad. In the Autumn, the roots can be ground up and dried up to make a very healthy, very nutritious and full of antioxidants, tea. There's a lot of so called Weeds out there that are edible and very healthy to eat.

I’m really excited that I found this video. I recently received a stereo microscope for my classroom with prepared slides of plant parts and insects. Two of those slides include a honeybee leg and a dandelion seed. I completely nerded out because I love teaching how important bees are to our environment. Dandelions are a main source of food in early spring when both bees and dandelions start to emerge after winter. Since the dandelion is one of the first flowers to bloom, native bees rely on their pollen far protein and nectar for sugar. These flowers are resilient for good reason.

I love them. I harvest their flowers for tea, dehydrate their greens for soups, use their raw greens in salads and their roots and good as an alternative to coffee. And, even better, already early honey bees are using them to nourish their awakening hives. What I didn’t know was all these other things about them and today while I harvested them I actually wondered why some have greens laying flat out (mostly in bare spots) while others (in the taller grassy wetlands) have greens sticking up. Now I know. Thanks!

This is an interesting perspective on dandelions on a typical lawn with the conditions you described. It explains a lot why my ex husband's lawn's had dandelions spring up and flowers could be seen scattered over the lawn at times if not mowed timely, but never turning into the flat her leafed excess invasions. He only mowed his lawn rarely fighting them. Since having joint problems I couldn't get out to fight them and feared the dandelions would really get bad, but they have actually settled down, guess having time to do their job. In addition ex husband does my lawns now, frequency is enough, but not until there is some obvious growth like his lawns.

Hi Stefan , thanks for a wonderful insight into the beautiful Dandelion, I not so long ago had a front lawn covered with Dandelion, a thick cover, the flowers would close up in the evening turning the lawn green and reopen in the early morning and displaying their colour, all within 10 minutes, amazingly beautiful. I had planned to get a time laps video of it, Until I arrived home one day and my family had CUT my front lawn for me...🙈. I still seem to laugh, some people cannot see the simple beauty. Thanks for sharing. 🙏

I had no idea of the yard benefits of the dandelion. By habit, I leave my dandelions alone just because pollinators use them as rest stops between flowers. I bought a house that had an unhealthy lawn (bald patches, crab grass, spikey weeds. Etc). But it also had dandelions in the areas where the grass was good. I decided to leave them and let the bees have a place to rest. Only time they’d disappear was when I’d mow over them just to give my yard a “heathy” appearance. I also don’t mow with a bag, to let the ground up clippings spread around as a sort of “fertilizer”..which includes the dandelion leaves. This year, I noticed the bald patches are going away. The crabgrass is dispersing, and no more spikey weeds. I didn’t fertilize the yard with anything other than clippings, I didn’t over seed. I just watered, mowed, and kept the dandelions. After watching this, I’m glad I did! I had no idea I was healing my lawn this whole time.

I still don't know why people don't like dandelions... I was brought up to pick them for dandelion honey, to give it to rabbits and to weave a wreath or a crown whatever you wanna call it and to enjoy blowing it in the air. I love them

Dandelions are fascinating. The flowers initially bloom close to the ground, but as they mature and get ready to go to seed the flower heads shoot up six inches or more into the air . This is to facilitate their mature seeds getting airborne. An amazing adaptation.
