Dandelion clock
Dandelion seeds. Close-up of seeds leaving the seed-head (or " clock" ) of the common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale). Each individual seed, of which there can be up to 400 on any one clock, is topped by a fine parachute of hairs (the pappus), which allows the seeds to be borne great distances by the wind. The dandelion is a common plant of grassland, and is a serious weed in gardens

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure and fascinating nature of a dandelion clock. The close-up shot captures the moment when the delicate seeds are leaving the seed-head, resembling a whimsical "clock". Each individual seed, numbering up to 400 on one clock, is crowned with a fine parachute of hairs known as pappus. This unique adaptation allows these seeds to be effortlessly carried great distances by the wind. The common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) depicted in this image is not only a familiar sight in grasslands but also considered a serious weed in gardens. Its reproductive prowess lies within its wind dispersal mechanism, aided by the pappus that acts as an efficient transportation system for these tiny seeds. Through this photograph, we gain insight into the remarkable process of plant reproduction and appreciate how plants have evolved various strategies to ensure their survival and proliferation. The intricate details captured here invite us to marvel at nature's ingenuity and complexity. This stunning visual representation from Science Photo Library serves as a reminder that even seemingly ordinary plants like dandelions possess extraordinary beauty and hold secrets waiting to be discovered through closer observation.
