Do you have a folk tradition of blowing dandelion clocks to tell the time? =)
Oh, never heard that before.
I have heard blowing a dandelion totally clean in one blow is good luck.
And back as a kid I was told that if you blow a dandelion that the seeds that are left is how many children you will get
Oooh!
Very nice...
They turned out very well.
Yaaay!
:D
Nice photos Sullivan! Here in the US, there is a custom that if you succeed in blowing all the seeds off a dandelion that you get to make a wish.

The dandelion traditions from all over the world are so interesting! =D
I haven't heard of making a wish by blowing a dandelion, but if a dandelion seed gets stuck in your eyelash, you get to make a wish on it before blowing it away again. =) This happened to me several times when I was a child, but I can't remember what I wished for, so I can't tell you whether it's effective. ;-)
We tell the time wiv dandylions too. Yu cownt yor puffs, and how menny it takes to mayke it all fly away is wat time it is.
But it can mayke yu sneeze if yu get it on yor nose.
