Botanical Description
Taraxacum semiglobosum is an apomictic microspecies of dandelion in the Asteraceae, belonging to section Taraxacum (the Taraxacum officinale aggregate, formerly sect. Ruderalia). Like other members of the aggregate, it is a perennial herb with a thick taproot and a basal rosette of oblanceolate leaves that are variably runcinate-lobed (pinnatifid) with backward-pointing lobes. The leafless, hollow flowering scape bears a single head of bright yellow ligulate (strap-shaped) florets subtended by outer bracts that are typically reflexed. After flowering, the head forms the familiar spherical "clock" of plumed achenes dispersed by wind. It occurs in temperate Europe and across the range of the officinale aggregate, growing in grassland, lawns, roadsides, and other disturbed, often nutrient-rich ground.
