Its bright yellow flowers and fluffy seed heads add a touch of whimsy to any landscape, while its leaves and roots offer a surprising array of culinary and health benefits.
GROWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Direct sow seeds outdoors in spring or fall. A 1 week cold stratification can help boost germination by breaking any seed dormancy. Sprinkle seeds on the soil surface and lightly rake them in. Dandelions prefer full sun but will tolerate partial shade. Keep the soil moist until germination. Thin seedlings to 6-12 inches apart. Dandelions are very adaptable and will grow in most soil types.
