How to Grow
Collect dandelion seeds from mature plants. Look for the fluffy white seed heads that appear after the flowers have died off. Choose a spot in your garden that gets full sun or partial shade. Dandelions are hardy plants that can tolerate a range of conditions, but they do best in well-draining soil. Loosen the soil with a garden fork or trowel, and remove any weeds or debris. Sprinkle the dandelion seeds over the soil, and lightly press them into the surface. Don't bury them too deep, as they need light to germinate. Water the soil gently, taking care not to wash away the seeds. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Wait for the seeds to germinate, which should happen within a week or two. Once the seedlings have established themselves, you can thin them out to give them more room to grow. Harvest the dandelion leaves when they are young and tender, before they get too bitter. They are a nutritious addition to salads, soups, and other dishes.
