TARAXACUM SEEDS

The Taraxacum genus, commonly known as Dandelion, is a resilient and ecologically important member of the Asteraceae family. These herbaceous perennials are celebrated for their bright yellow, ray-like flowers that bloom from early spring to autumn, followed by spherical seed heads often called "dandelion clocks." Taraxacum adds naturalistic charm and ecological value to meadows, lawns, and wildflower gardens.

Native to temperate regions worldwide, Taraxacum thrives in well-drained soils and sunny to partially shaded locations. These hardy plants are drought-tolerant and play a vital role in ecosystems by supporting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Popular species such as Taraxacum officinale, or Common Dandelion, are also valued for their edible leaves and roots, used in salads, teas, and traditional remedies.

The Taraxacum genus combines beauty, practicality, and ecological significance, making it an enduring symbol of nature’s resilience and a beneficial addition to wildlife-friendly landscapes.
