...this dandelion a promise of the sun that has shone all day.

The Dandelion name first developed in the 15th century. It was derived from the Medieval Latin phrase dens lionis, which refers to the jagged shape of the leaves by calling them a lion’s tooth. This transformed into dent-de-lion in French, and then became Dandelion in Middle English.


Symbolising many things, a reminder of the sun's power is one that catches the light today.
