This heartiest of flowers formed many memories in my childhood, from holding it under your chin to see if it reflected or not (Was it to see if you were telling the truth? Can’t remember) to making flower chains with them, to blowing their white fluff away to scatter in all directions with the result that it was later necessary to  pick hundreds of new dandelions out of the lawn!  They were the one flower that was ever-present during the spring, summer and fall.
