Hello, I’m a dandelion! Many people call me a weed, but I’m actually a friend who’s here to help you!

I’m one of the first flowers to bloom after winter, and I’m extra generous because I offer both pollen AND nectar — unlike most plants that give you one or the other. Insects love me! 🤪😉

When you see me growing, remember: I’m the only one who can thrive in that exact spot because your soil needs my help.

Here’s why I’m there:

The soil might be too compact, hard, or stomped — my roots work to loosen it for you.

There could be too little calcium in the soil — when my leaves die, they replenish it naturally.

The soil might be too acidic — I’ll improve that too if you give me a chance.

Or it could be a mix of these issues.
