15 Japanese White Dandelion Seeds (Very Rare).

In Japan, white dandelion is held in high esteem. A white-flowered member of the dandelion family, this species is specifically found growing wild in southern Japan. It is not considered an aggressive or weedy dandelion variety. Instead, it is celebrated in its native land as a useful food and medicine plant. Its delicately bitter leaves are lightly boiled into Ohitashi. The snow-white blooms are lightly battered and fried for tempura, and the long tap root is favored both for its culinary potential and its medicinal benefits. Adapted to most areas, but best in a location that receives morning sun and part to full shade in afternoon--this keeps greens tender and mild. The plant may not bloom the first year becsuse it is putting its energy into making a long tap root to ensure the plant to come back every year. It will still produce the foilage the first year.
