Project Description

This spring the first flowers up were dandelions. My son was giving them to me as fleur pour ton coeur and then he loved when he could blow the white puffs into the air. I was looking at them thinking:good for the liver, cleanses the blood, good for anemia, constipation, rheumatism, high in B vitamins… the healing properties of the dandelion roots, leaves and flowers are amazing. Then the next day I was watching my neighbor spray her dandelions with toxic chemicals, rip them out of the earth and scowl, they were a weed on her beautiful yard. I started my vamps and I thought about all the positives these women had/have(hoping for the missing) and then the the negatives, dandelions seemed like the logical choice for my flower.
