"To some the dandelion is a weed; but not to me, unless it takes its share of space, for I always miss these little earth stars when they are absent. They intensify the sunshine shimmering on the lawn, making one smile involuntarily when seeing them. Moreover, they awaken pleasant memories, for a child in which dandelions had no part is a defective experience." ~Excerpted from "The Home Acre," by E.P. Roe
We love dandelions here. C has been picking me little dandelion bouquets each day and marveling at these "earth stars"! The quote above is great..couldn't imagine a childhood without them. We even made a Dandelion Heart as part of our Land Art collection.
Now most of our dandelions are going to seed, but still they are so exciting to a child. Now we have dandelion "puff ball" bouquets!
