Dandelion flowers and seeds have been, in all times a great inspiration for children's books writers, favorite flower for children to play with and a bane of those looking for the perfect lawn.
Plants in our lives have great power. Indoor plants and outdoor plants can bring us down or lift us up.
We have all experienced the ability to regenerate from our roots like the dandelion. Their ability to thrive under the most adverse conditions can teach us persistence and survival.
