Blossom’s_Photo_Gallery Dandelion I could not believe my eyes when I saw this Dandelion, as it was the size of a tennis ball – The largest Dandelion I have ever seen! 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. Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia.

Coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara) is a plant in the family Asteraceae. It has been used medicinally as a cough suppressant. The name “tussilago” itself means “cough suppressant.” The plant has been used since at least historical times to treat lung ailments such as asthma as well as various coughs by way of smoking. Crushed flowers supposedly cured skin conditions, and the plant has been consumed as a food item. Coltsfoot is a perennial herbaceous plant that spreads by seeds and rhizomes. Tussilago is often found in colonies of dozens of plants. The flowers, which superficially resemble dandelions, appear in early spring before dandelions appear. The leaves, which resemble a colt’s foot in cross section, do not appear usually until after the seeds are set. Thus, the flowers appear on stems with no apparent leaves, and the later appearing leaves then wither and die during the season without seeming to set flowers. The plant is typically between 10 – 30 cm in height. This image was captured in mid-April 2008 in Lynde Shores Conservation Area in Whitby, Ontario, Canada.
