First Dandelion of 2018


Here is an image of the first dandelion i've seen in flower in 2018.
I've been looking out for the first dandelion here in Preston for a while. It's been a cold few months and i've seen a couple of dandelions nearly ready to come out, but not fully. However, yesterday I was walking along the river and saw a few in full flower. Hoorah! They're back.

Dandelion Net Curtain


Staying with textiles (see blog posts below) I also have this net curtain in the Dandelion Archive. It's not the easiest thing to take clear photographs of, but you get the idea. It's got dandelion flower heads in seed and also a few seeds blowing around. There are no leaves, but are in amongst blades of grass.
