  3. So pleased you've included a dandelion. They are loathed as weeds here but I love their cheerfulness so much I've transplanted a couple into one of my flower beds. Until recently I hadn't realised there are lots and lots of varieties. I'm tempted to begin a collection. Happy New Year. Esther

  4. Beautiful garden in a beautiful setting.
    The bees are loving our healthy 'crop' of dandelions right now. I feel that they shouldn't be mowed! Sigh
