Description

Dandelion, a resilient and adaptable small perennial from the Asteraceae family, thrives in various soil types, which contributes to its widespread distribution. Originally from Europe and Western Asia, this plant has now become naturalized across numerous countries. It plays a crucial ecological role, attracting pollinators and earthworms while aerating the soil with its robust roots. 

Its jagged leaves resemble a lion’s tooth, earning its French name dent de lion, while its round yellow flowers have whimsically been likened to a swine snout. Known for its bitter qualities and diuretic effects, dandelion is celebrated as a supporting herb for overall health and wellness.
