Dandelion
What is a dandelion ?
• Dandelion (lat. Taráxacum) is a genus of perennial herbaceous plants of the Aster family, or Compositae. The type species of the genus - Dandelion officinalis- is a well-known plant with a rosette of basal leaves and a scattering of bright yellow inflorescences-baskets of reed flowers. In inclement weather and at night, the basket closes. At the top of the elongated nose of the seeds there are many hairs, with their help the dandelion fruit can fly into the air currents with a large distribution.
Species of the genus Dandelion
• There are over two thousand apomictic microspecies of dandelions, and about seventy so-called "large", or prefabricated ones. Some botanists take a narrower view and accept only about 60 species. One of the species of dandelion, White-tongued dandelion (Taraxacum leucoglossum), is listed in the Red Book.
