🌼✨ HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT — THE DANDELION ✨🌼
Most of us see a dandelion and think…
w**d. 😂
But this little yellow flower has a lot more going on than it gets credit for.
🌿 Dandelions are incredibly resilient and can grow in cracks, lawns, roadsides and places where plenty of other plants struggle.
🌼 What looks like one flower is actually made up of lots of tiny individual flowers packed together into one bright yellow head.
🐝 Their flowers can also provide food for insects visiting for pollen and nectar.
And then there’s the folklore…
✨ Dandelions have long been connected with resilience, wishes, divination and transformation — which honestly feels pretty fitting for a plant that gets pulled out, mowed down and stepped on… and still comes back. 😂
But this bright yellow flower is only one part of its story.
Because before it becomes the fluffy little “wish” we all know…
something happens in between. 👀🌿
I’m going to show you that next.
