Dandelion in the buttercups

A whole month to think of something for the theme of Nature and it came down to the last day, and a weed.
And why not!
The dandelion has a lot of positives. It is edible, if a little bitter, and used in drinks like Dandelion and Burdock. Also has been used as a medicine.
It's taproot brings up nutrients for shallower-rooting plants, and add minerals and nitrogen to soil. It is also known to attract pollinating insects and release ethylene gas which helps fruit to ripen, helps to aerate the soil .
So there you go!
