[quote:Gan Ainm:MV8yMjMxNTUwXzM3ODQ3NzQzX0VBN0IyODIw] I think it's a disease called aster yellows. It spreads easily. Every time I think I've got it knocked out in my flower beds, it raises its ugly head. The only way to get rid of it is to dig your plants up and burn them. I have to take out several plants this spring that got infected from some nearby coneflowers. Dandelions are definitely a host for this pest. [/quote]
Original Message
Came across these strange deformed dandelions with thick stems and multiple flower heads per stem in a baseball field. Never seen anything like this and cant help but think whether this is a common phenomenon or environmental (Fukushima, pesticides, etc). I remember as a kid always picking dandelions and popping the flower heads off and through the hundreds I'm sure I have picked I never remember any strange looking ones. Been seeing many other forum and youtube vids about similar plant anomalies across the country. Anyone else seeing this?
