Dandelions and Civilization: A Forgotten History

Dandelions are among the most populous and widespread plants on earth. The secret to their success has to do both with their unique characteristics, and their inextricable connection to humans. The history of humans and dandelions is forever linked in ways that may surprise you. This is original content based on research by The History Guy.
