Dandelions

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

Acquisition[edit]

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[edit]

While dandelions are modestly beautiful and can be sown, they provide comparatively little beauty per plant compared to the other flowers and cannot be grown under torch or standing lamps, but they have a much longer lifespan and are very fast to sow, making them significantly more work efficient. It is massively inefficient to use a sun lamp to grow them indoors, but in temperate environments sections of the roof can be left off to grow them in rooms. Due to the low beauty per tile, this is best left to large rooms.

Dandelions can 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.
