    Just to clarify my earlier post, the blue flower pictured is a sky pilot, not deadly nightshade. Anyway, I still vote for something other than a dandelion but I see that I am being rapidly out-voted. Sky pilot! Sky pilot! sky pilot!

    Although the French call a dandelion "pissenlit", the English name comes from the French "dent de lion", meaning "tooth of lion" because of the shape of the leaves.

    That should satisfy people who feel they need something more masculine.

    It has my vote
