Dandelion’s herbal name is Taraxacum Officinale which is derived from the Greek taraxos
(disorder) and akos (remedy) , on account of the curative action of the plant.
Dandelion has been used as a medicine for centuries and its benefits were noted in the writings
of the Arabian physicians as early as the tenth century.
Dandelion quickly became a favourite healing herb in Europe, Asia, India, the Amercias, Mexico and
New Zealand. Dandelion’s popularity continues to grow and is embraced by both herbalists and
modern medicine.
The dandelion is an excellent barometer. In fine weather the flower extends to the full , but
when rain approaches it shuts like an umbrella and won’t open again until the rain has
passed.
Dandelions are an important source of food for bees because they grow all throughout the
year.
This provides abundant and continual pollen for over 100 insect species who count on this for
food
