Has anyone else noticed the lack of dandelions this summer? I have
only found 2 so far and one of those was in the yard of a garden
center.

My yard was so full of them this spring that I finally got around to
making Dandelion wine for the first time in 25-30 yrs. 1 gallon of
blossoms in a 20x30 side yard.

It does seem like they were early and have stopped blossoming- but we
[upstate NY] had an incredibly warm May, followed by the wettest June
on record- followed by [so far] a very wet July.
