Dandelions were brought to North America as a food crop. We can eat every part of the plant. They're an invasive species, but not what I would consider a weed.

Anything can be a weed. All a weed is it a plant growing is the wrong spot in the eyes of a human.

Agreed, but Monsanto would love us to believe all kinds of plants are weeds so we buy their chemicals.

A field of dandelion flowers is beautiful.

And also, a field of invasive species that drove out the native plants… Just saying.
