Description
Closeup of a Dandelion on a teal colored textured background.
----------
While many people think of the dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) as a pesky weed, herbalists consider it a valuable herb that can be used as a food and medicine. Dandelion is a rich source of vitamins A, B complex, C, and D, as well as minerals such as iron, potassium, and zinc. Dandelion leaves are used to add flavor to salads, sandwiches, and teas. The roots are used in some coffee substitutes, and the flowers are used to make wines.
----------
The Dandelion has very small flowers collected together into a composite flower head. Each single flower in a head is called a floret.
