When I lived in the Pacific Northwest I encountered
a lot of people who piled old wall-to-wall carpets on
top of their lawn or garden. It took me a while to
figure out that this was their dandelion abatement
strategy. Trying to get rid of them by mowing or
yanking them out of the ground didn’t work, my
neighbors told me, it only made them grow back
faster and denser. At the time it was raining every
day. What more could dandelions want than steady
rain. While I was thinking about all this, I happened
to be driving on a stretch of road where dandelions
had won the war. Bright yellow flowers were coming
up everywhere right through fields of carpets. In no
time their puffy blooms would be on the move. (The
puffy bIooms are known officially as “parachute
balls.”)
