I remember as a kid with my friends wove a wreath of dandelions on the head of the doll and cooked foods - these memories inadvertently occur in my mind, when on the road I found the yellow suns.
But who would have thought that it is incredibly hardy plant, which many call a weed, It can bring us favor in the garden?! I used to be fascinated by the study of dandelions - I wondered whether they really does not get sick, and whether they have pests. And digging on the internet found many recipes for fertilizing garden plants whose main ingredient and are the dandelions.
