We have dandelions. Lots of dandelions. And it’s the time of year when you run over them, repeatedly, with a John Deer and they pop up behind you. If the mower weren’t making so much noise you’d hear them laughing “Nice try, sucker!”

Perhaps you should make dandellion wine!
Take comfort in knowing that they are helping your soil! See http://www.waldeneffect.org/blog/Dandelions:_Dynamic_accumulator_and_edible/
i like them… but not their smell.. 🙂
just yesterday i was searching for the name of these flowers… 🙂 in dutch we call them “paardenbloem”, literally that is “horseflower”
Wow, you do have lots!
Eat ’em. Dip the flowers in a good beer batter and fry in olive oil. That will teach them to mess with you.
This is a particularly dense patch where my husband spread some gravel last year and they took over without any competition. . .I’ll take comfort in knowing they’re helping the soil, which we otherwise call “claycrete.”
