I was reading about a different plant, not a bulb but having a powerful taproot: Taraxacum. Outsidepride.com is selling 5,000 common dandelion seeds for $4.99. Housewarming present? Creative vandalism? I think of my Dad, policing the lawn with a metal tool to sever that tenacious taproot. Maybe he hated dandelions, but maybe he just wanted the peace and quiet? Is that why we garden? I wish you all peace and quiet in these tough times.
