Greene's Hawkweed: The 84th Flower of Spring & Summer!
Did you know there are more than 10,000 recorded species of Hawkweed flowers?!! WOW!! The name Hawkweed comes from folklore that said hawks ate these flowers to improve their eyesight--though they would do better to eat carrots! :D This flower can be found all over the world and though they are similar to dandelions, they aren't in the same sub-family. Hawkweeds are considered an invasive weed in most places because it spreads so easily and is hard to get rid of, once established. This flower is, however, a favorite food for many insects including moths and butterflies.
