Dandelions are cheerful little splashes of colour in lawns and borders. They flower longer than any other plant, providing food for early pollinators. Sadly, not everyone loves them as much as I do. They're often considered weeds, and are somewhat unwanted plants.
But remember. Weeds are just flowers that grow where we don't necessarily want them to.
Still, they've grown up alongside us here in the British Isles so there's naturally plenty of folklore about these sunshine plants. Let's find out how we can use them to make wishes, cure warts, and predict the weather in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
