Inside view of a dandelion seed head.
A seed head about to deliver its seads in our backyard and beyond
The Dandelion is an amazing nature study when you stop and take a look at it.I don't like the plant growing in my garden, but I do wonder at the beauty of the seed head.
It is brilliantly made with countless seed heads growing in an amazing pattern to form a ball.
These seedheads are making sure that this plant is not going to die out in a hurry!
The seeds are very soft. Watching them fly away when the breeze or wind comes to carry them to a place where they lie
until it is time for them to begin to grow into a new plant is one of natures spectacles.
It is no wonder that many fibre artists have focused on the dandelion seedhead as part
of their artistry.
