remember being little and thinking dandelions were fun or a pretty color or something and every adult in an 80 mile radius wouldn’t let you say that without screaming ITS A WEED

also like:

• dandelions are edible, easy to grow, and are rich in vitamins a, c, k, beta-carotene, calcium, iron, manganese, and potassium
  
• dandelions can be made into wine, tea, soft drinks, and a coffee substitute
• they are used in herbal remedies to treat liver and digestive problems and as a diuretic
• they’re good for bees!
• they make good companion plants for various herbs and tomatoes; their long taproot helps bring up nutrients in the soil and they release ethylene gas which ripens fruit
• dandelions secrete latex which means they can be used to make natural rubber 
• they make great flower crowns 

Why ARE they considered a weed? They’re a good flower? Who decided they were bad? =(

lawn culture made the decision to consider dandelions weeds

since lawn culture is showing off how rich you are (because wow you can afford the greenest and best lawn in your suburb so you must be rich) capitalism decided that dandelions are weed
