Our kroger now sells organic dandelion greens for people food. Too bad your neighbors don't know they could make a few bucks. I.takes a lot to kill off dandelion. Digging It up won't work. so what have they been up to. Saphire loves the bright yellow flowers. He thinks they're yummy. He likes the flowers so much he ate a poof ball onceThis is Oregon...dandelion should be the state flower. I moved to this house in 2005...the area was flooded with dandelions. I had a large Sulcata then (and I was younger) and I used to take plastic bags and wander the neighborhood and I would bring home large bags of the weed. Huge amounts....anyhow, now almost 15 years later it's like a scavenger hunt to find them. My neighbors yards are almost dandelion free and mine will be yellow with them in a couple weeks...and I am now trying to 'clean up another neighborhood...lol...for my 2 Sulcata...
