Dandelions are a common beautiful flower that can be sown but also grows naturally in temperate forests, arid shrublands, deserts, and tundra.

Acquisition

Dandelions can be sown by growers in growing zones. Sowing requires 170 ticks (2.83 secs) of work. Unlike roses and daylilies they cannot be planted in plant pots.

Analysis

Dandelions are modestly beautiful, and they can be grown indoors. While they provide comparatively little beauty per plant, each dandelion lasts for 20 days, which cuts down on work. If you have a big room with a dirt floor and open roof, they can be viable for raising the rooms beauty. In smaller rooms, the higher beauty per tile of roses or daylilies will be preferred.

Dandelions can also be used as quick-growing feed for grazing animals. However, unless food is urgently needed, growing and harvesting crop plants such as corn and haygrass are far more work efficient.
