To love or not to love?

To love or not to love?
On a recent drive along some of the gravel backroads south east of the city, I passed someone's acreage and the ground was a carpet of brilliant yellow Dandelions. People seem to either like or dislike these glorious flowers - guess I'm one of those who find them beautiful : )

"Taraxacum officinale is considered a weedy species, especially in lawns and along roadsides, but it is sometimes used as a medical herb and in food preparation. As a nearly cosmopolitan weed, Dandelion is best known for its yellow flower heads, that turn into round balls of silver tufted fruits, that blow away on the wind."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taraxacum_officinale

"The name dandelion comes from the French, dents de lion, which means “teeth of the lion,” and refers to the jagged edges on the leaves of the dandelion plant."
