If you hate dandelions, consider this:

A thread from Singaporean gardening Facebook of people desperate to get hold of the exotic dandelion plants they know from foreign holidays... ⬇️
With beautiful, bee-attracting flowers and super nutritious leaves, who wouldn’t want one?

One online seller flags up they only have three pots left on the Singaporean equivalent of EBay.
Apparently one of the big allures are the incredibly sculptural seed heads, which act as living wind chimes...
There’s even a sculpture at the award-winning, lushly-planted Singapore airport to celebrate these exotic beauties of foreign holidays.
Now, I often get in trouble for suggesting us Brits look beyond our borders, (imagined) heritage or intrenched cultural beliefs for our gardening inspiration.

But sometimes when you do, you appreciate all the wonders you have on your doorstep.

Probably growing in crack.
