Best Answer

Adaptability to diverse environments, cooperation with wind-blown dispersal, long-term viability, and survival of environmental stress are adaptations of the dandelion seed. The wildflower in question (Taraxacum officinale) produces seeds from spring through fall, which gives it ample time to spread with each season's breezes and winds.
