Dandelion Plant

Dandelion Plant

The Dandelion is a fascinating perennial plant with a rich cultural history. It is particularly irritating to lawn owners in American suburbs. Dandelion is native to Europe and Asia, and it's believed it was introduced to the United States via the May flower, where people brought it for its medicinal uses.The plant is actually a non-native in North America, but has become naturalized across much of the United States and Canada, where it is classified as an invasive species only in Alaska and Oregon. The fluffy, yellow blooms are undeniably gorgeous, and can be found growing just about anywhere – truly, anywhere!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I eat dandelions from my yard?

Yes, you can snack on dandelions from your yard as long as they haven’t been treated with pesticides or chemicals. Every part of the plant—the leaves, flowers, and roots—is edible and packed with nutrients. They’re delicious in salads, teas, or cooked dishes when harvested fresh and clean.
What plant may be mistaken for a dandelion?

Plants often mistaken for dandelions include cat’s ear (also called false dandelion), hawkweed, and sow thistle. These look similar with yellow blooms and fluffy seed heads. The key difference is that dandelions have a single flower per stem, while the look-alikes often have branching stems or multiple blooms.
Where do dandelions grow best?

Dandelions grow best in full sun and well-drained soil. They thrive in lawns, gardens, and open fields where the soil is slightly moist. Their adaptability makes them easy to grow almost anywhere.

I had doubts when I first opened the box. Packaged well. After planting them after two weeks they came to life and are flourishing quite well. They are very healthy and now branching out vividly. Thank you!

Giant Chicory!

I purchased a selection of blue plants. I planted the bare roots in a large planter I call the nursery. I wait until they are adapting to their new environment. When they start growing about three inches, I transplant to a larger pot, then to their permanent location in my garden. One grew to four feet. Others are 1- 2 feet! I can see buds sprouting and can’t wait until they bloom. I did have to cut the 4ft one down to 2 ft so it would get fuller.

My favorite spring flower

My absolute favorite spring flower. I’ve bought several over the years. Sometimes I’ve found they might not come up until the second year but most from this nursery come in the next spring.

I just want to say I would give 5 star satisfaction but my trees are just now in the ground. My shipment arrived fast and in great condition. The bare root trees already trimmed to perfection. I am so pleased. Been in the ground a week and already have green growth.
