Summary edit

Description
English: Dandelions (Taraxacum officinale) A close look at some superb specimens of these most familiar flowers. If only their deep roots weren't such a nuisance in gardens, I am sure they would be much appreciated for the bright displays they produce in spring. The name is from French 'dent de lion' because of the supposed resemblancs of the leaves to lions' teeth, but paradoxically the French name for them is Pissenlit, meaning 'wet the bed', because of the diuretic properties of the edible leaves.
