I love flower petals and eat them often but I still want my greens.

Oh I agree! Flowers are good but I too have to have greens.

for those with latex allergy: I was told by our science teacher that the white milky substance that comes out of the dandelion stem is rubber/latex based. I noted that when I put one of these in my hair/behind my ear, I get congested. Thought it was the flower...it's the latex.

I am sure there are, but I'm just jumping in here to mention that I used to know people who made wine out of dandelion flowers. I was too young to be allowed a taste, but the adults sure seemed to enjoy it. Interesting.

With this flower, you can eat the flowers and the greens. I will have a personal recommendation on the tastes in about - oh - 50-60 days:)
