many thx
Buy a Bearded Dragon, they love the flowers! We can't get enough of them.
Plus the young leaves are splendid in salads.
I can't believe you want rid of them. They are one of our favourite
plants...

Here, in Calgary, they are considered a pest. The grass dies back in winter
so the dandelions have a head start in spring and proliferate. If you have
a lot (and you soon will if you don't use 2-4-D regularly) and allow them to
seed, the city council, following complaints by neighbours, will come and
cut your lawn and charge you handsomely!
