Default [IBC] **** [IBC] Dandelions as bonsai - was Dormancy for Kingswood Yardsai


Seriously... when you say bonsai dandelion, what do you

mean.... just
a potted plant? do you train the stem? leaf reduction? Any

pictures?


They're fairly common as companion plants around here.

I leave mine in what little lawn I have. They're green. Like
grass.

(Semi-rant)

Lawns have to be one of the more diabolical inventions exported
to this country by the British. I can NOT imagine why people put
such time, effort, and money into something as artificial and
high-maintenance as a lawn. Nor can I understand why people
fertilize lawns then hire an expensive, agricultural- and
horticultural-illiterate person to come every week to cut the
grass they just put fertilizer on so it would grow fast!

And if you're ever in Arizona . . . take a look at all the idiots
who moved there from Pennsylvania and who are trying to have a
lawn "just like home." (Many AZ communities have mandated
Xeriscape (TM) landscapes because of the immense water usage
required for a green lawn in the desert.)
