Re: [MittleiderMethodGardening] Re: Help I have a million dandelions and grass growing where it shouldn't be
I too am curious about what plants might be confused with dandelions.
I never wait till the "puff ball of seeds" forms before pinching the flowers.
Bobby in Sun City who has never tried sauteeing the leaves with garlic,
but I have eaten them raw with spinach. I like raw spinach.

I have been wondering how one could know for sure what is a dandelion
and what is not... are there any other features to check out before
actually eating it? Can anyone who knows upload photos of REAL
dandelions, and imposters...???

smooth in a basal flourette and the flower stems are hollow.)
