Common Dandelion (Taraxum officinale)
This picture shows the first dandelion (Taraxum officinale) flower we have this year in our garden.
This flower is native to the Northern Hemisphere. Plants found in the Southern part of earth were carried off there.
The plant develops up 1m long tap-roots, which is ecologically very good for the ground. Since it is spreading massively it is still not always appreciated.
Anyway we can not wait for the first blowball.
Since the blossoms appear so early in spring, it dandelions are an important food source for bees.
Flowers and leaves are edible
