The 2020 contractually obliged dandelion clock photo ...

I was flicking through the internet yesterday and I came across this word ... it’s literal translation from Welsh is wool feathers and is used to describe dandelion fluff ...

Plenty of dandelion fluff about at the moment ... don’t chop your dandelions down people, incredibly important for bees this time of year when there’s not many other flowers about ...

I’ll let you google translate the below ...

“O mor hael yw Awdwr natur
Gyda'i flodau o bob rhyw,
Maent i ni fel engyl cysur
Ar ein taith ar dir y byw;
Blodau'r grug a'n swyna'n hollol
O dan wên y boreu gwyn,
Mewn dinodedd, mor ddeniadol
Ydyw gwedd y blodau hyn.”

Mansel Thomas - 1909
