Dandelions are good for the bees. My friend heard it in the radio- leave the dandelions in your lawn! Saw these two lawns next door to one another at a duplex in Bloomfield. The Weekly Photo Challenge created by Krista Stevens is prolific.

Phlox is pretty.
Thanks for reminding us about the usefulness of dandelions, Ruth! Here is a Flickr photo which I shot last year: https://www.flickr.com/photos/130447299@N05/17137448998/in/dateposted-public/
The field could feed quite a few bees.

We love our dandelions – so do the bees and bunnies.
I’ll keep my dandelions. Anything to help bring the bees back.
Good to know! Just in time! Thanks for the tip.
Quite the contrast! Flowers for everyone. 🙂
And they’re also very cheerful but . . .
Both beautiful! I might prefer the dandelions 🙂 They are edible too aren’t they?
Dandelions are also good for wishing! 🙂
Guess that is a reason to be less obsessive about getting rid of dandelions but think would rather plant lavender.
