Dandelion Clock

The name Dandelion is given to species of the genus (Taraxacum), a large genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae.

Dandelion are a common and extremely hardy plant, found in most temperate zone gardens during the summer months. Dandelions were originally widely distributed throughout Eurasia, but have been inadvertently introduced to North America and Australia, where they have thrived.

The dandelion has a bright yellow flower, which gives way in time to a globe of fine filaments that are usually distributed by wind, containing the seeds that help it spread. This is generally known as the “dandelion clock”, and blowing it away is a popular pastime for children.
