Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale)

Folk Names: Blowball, Cankerwort, Lion's Tooth, Priest's Crown, Puffball, White Endive

Uses:
To find out how long you will live, blow the seeds off the head of a dandelion. You will live as many years as there are seeds left on the head.

To tell the time: blow three times at the seed head. The number left is the hour.

The root, when dried, roasted and ground like coffee, is used to make a tea. This infusion will promote psychic powers.
