Has anyone ever seen Dandelions with multiple heads on one stalk?

What the dandelions are doing is something that is called
"fascination".

Hi,
Actually it is called fasciation or your spell checker is on automatic

and
changed it ;-) I've only seen it happen in water lilies.
HTH -_-


my spelling yesterday wasn't the best. I don't have spell checker on
automatically. I usually hit F7 and highlight a word and then it asks me

if
I want to check the rest of it. I forgot yesterday in answering the
question. I've seen this in quite a few plants over the years. The Gerbera
daisies from Lowes this last year and a half have been the newest ones to
draw my attentions. And my purple Loosestrife. Apparently cactus do it

more
frequently than other plants.........

Ok, while we're on the subject, does anyone know anything about Caladiums
that have "inside-out" spots on the underside of the leaves? I only have one
that does it, but it does it all the time. I'll post a pic on ABPG if anyone
is interested.
