For weeks, it seems, the dandelion has graced our city with its resplendent colour brightening our days.
Overnight suddenly, but not unexpected, this prolific weed then takes steps to further spread its joy.
The here-today-gone-tomorrow presence of the dandelion is a quite remarkable. Despite our efforts to remove the weed from our landscape, it keeps coming back.
A dandelion is a powerful symbol of the cycle of life as it marks spring and early summer, naturally goes to seed, and keeps coming back. Year after year. The dandelion’s return, like its colour, is a reminder of perseverance.
