A Nightengale Sang

I wrote a thing about dandelions! 🌼 Here are some of the fun little factoids I dug up:

There are around 2800 microspecies of dandelion.

There are native species of dandelion across the northern hemisphere, including several species from North America, like the horned dandelion and the California dandelion.

European dandelions are considered an invasive species, but they aren't harmful. Once a damaged ecosystem has been repaired, dandelions tend to disappear.

Conservation efforts are needed for some indigenous dandelions, so they don't go extinct!

Dandelions are probably the most nutritious thing growing in your garden.

Dandelions have been used in traditional medicine for centuries, and scientific studies have confirmed some of their medicinal properties.

Dandelions are only considered "weeds" because of lawns.

Growing dandelions will help other plants in your garden. Their roots break up compacted soil and draw up nutrients too deep for other plants to reach.

Horticulturalists once bred dandelions as garden flowers.

Woman in purple, in a high pitched, enthusiastic voice: if you’re not at work today or you’re working from home, you may be wondering, whAt day is it?
