Dandelions can be useful. If you can get enough flower heads you can make wine with them (it's very good wine). Also people during the depression would sometimes roast the roots and grind them up to use as a substitute for coffee (not quite as good as chicory though). I've always kind of liked dandelions (a lot of people don't though)
They all work really well for the 'momma had a baby and its head popped off' trick.
Dandelions have saved so many infant's lives.
Ahhh, the hills of Alabama on a sunny day...laying on the grass, looking at the clouds and blowing dandelion puffs into the wind..Those were the days Lemming.. :)
If they are on *your* lawn, they're a nuisance.
You call them dandelion puffs over there, eh, Tadema? I like that! We call them dandelion CLOCKS.
(which I also like)
