Dandelion Seed Head

Dandelion Seed Head
Taken in my garden. I'm amazed that this wild flower has grown, bloomed and gone to seed so early in the season.

There's an entire ecosystem in your garden, Keith. Spring comes later here because I live 1,000 meters above sea level. The flowers and butterflies appear later. Enjoy a wonderful Sunday

Keith Burton club has replied to Anton Cruz Carro club
I have quite a large...........and very untidy garden, it's not showing much growth at the moment...........but we're getting there as the days get warmer and sunnier.

We had hardly any butterflies at all last year...........they are in decline in England at the moment. We're hoping to see more this year!

Die heißen bei uns auch Puste-Blume. Warum, kannst Du Dir sicher vorstellen. Löwenzahnblüten habe ich bei uns auch schon in diesem Jahr entdeckt, aber nur einzelne und noch keine ausgereiften. Die könne rühig gerne noch ein wenig warten. Ich sage immer: "Der Frühling ist eine Puste-Blume! Viel zu schnell vorbei!" ;-)

As children we called them Dandelion Clocks............and the number of puffs taken to blow all the tiny seed away indicated the time of day :-)))
