How to Grow Dandelion Greens
The name of the plant originated from the French who called it "dent de lion" or tooth of the lion, as the jagged edges of the leaves are suggestive of a lion's tooth.3 Although it is native to Europe and Asia, it has been carried around the world and is probably one of the most recognizable plants worldwide. It is believed the European settlers found the plant so useful they purposefully brought the dandelion with them to the New World.
