Tuesday Tidbit

Interesting bit I learned while doing research: Dandelions are the only flowers known to represent the sun, the moon, and the starts. The first bloom of yellow is the sun. The fluffy orb is the moon, and the individual dispersing seeds are the stars. They open in the morning and close at night. The leaves add a peppery taste to salads. The roots, leaves, and flowers are known for a variety of medicinal uses. The flowers are also bee and butterfly starter foods.
