HISTORY
Plant historians know that dandelions have been an important component of traditional Chinese medicine for at least a thousand years.

Only when in nature (I live in a polluted city) I pick them and eat them in a salad. I read the roots are even more beneficial, so I’ve picked some and am currently drying them, I think I’ll consume them in tea
