Isn't there some sort of abandoned field or neglected area somewhere with dandelions sprouting up? I'm shocked that you don't have some coming up in your own yard or garden.
I'm in Southern Az, we don't have abandoned fields we have desert. Lots and lots of desert. Creosote I have plenty, mesquite, I will never need to buy smoking chips for my grill. Dandelions none. Probably the 115 deg heat in summer, which for us this year looks like it will be April to November

As a kid i had to cut them out of my parents lawn for days on end. There is no end to them.I can confirm that they regrouw from leafless roots or pieces of roots. I would just collects seeds locally.

I'm hoping this is the case!Casie Becker wrote:
Of course, dandelions have such a reputation for being survivors, maybe it doesn't matter where they come from.
