But even if you don't put them in salads or make wine with them (neither do I!) if you love butterflies, they are not weeds:) A few butterflies (and other insects) utilize them fully! Just like clover, which the bees love, dandelions are not really a 'bad' thing.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12844013803699228989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-21432057122561980262013-03-02T14:14:28.111-05:002013-03-02T14:14:28.111-05:00Carol- I like flowers in lawns too.

I have to admit I have 4 kinds of dandelion-like weeds that flower in succession in my lawn despite my efforts, at least they give the bumblebees something to eat. My last-ditch effort is to pick off all the seed-heads before blow. My favorite lawn flowers are lawn daisies, Bellis Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773149110503024929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-87340090215484961862013-02-27T23:33:45.967-05:002013-02-27T23:33:45.967-05:00Oh Carol, i can already visualize the wonderful la...Oh Carol, i can already visualize the wonderful landscape you are creating, we will expect it next year.

I'm doing something similar in front of my fence. A few years ago the area was covered in coreopsis, but they are too tall and the grass grew up and looked messy. So now I need to think of another flower option.
