      Well done, Mr PM! :dbgrtmb: That dandelion would be proud to know it has been immortalised! :biggrin: Its offspring will discuss the honour in hushed tones of wonder!

          Thank you @ViewAhead and @Bluejayway, proof that my garden isn't always tidy :biggrin:. (That dandelion sneaked in amongst some orange Geums and I didn't notice it until the seedhead appeared. Outrageous :thud: :biggrin:.)

              Congratulations @Plantminded
              My first thought was, “it must be a fake, he would never overlook a dandelion”.

                Thank you @CanadianLori and @simone_in_wiltshire. It was a determined intruder, even mimicking its taller neighbours thinking that I wouldn't notice - and I didn't :biggrin:.

                    Thank you @Sheal. I watched it disburse very soon after that photo was taken. Lots of photo opportunities next year :biggrin:.

                      I liked it @Plantminded ! It perfectly echoed the ball on top of the rust coloured obelisk!
