The larvae are probably polyphagous and have been reared on Taraxacum and Poa species.
Hixon’s first permanent museum installation, Super-Sized Dandelion Plant, a fifteen-foot, three-dimensional flower installation using cellophane, opened in the front lobby of the Children’s Museum of Art in New York City’s SoHo neighborhood December 2011.
Due to creative differences, vocalist Rick Mythiasin left the band in December 2002, intending to concentrate completely on his German/American band-project Taraxacum.

Examples of apomixis can be found in the genera Crataegus (hawthorns), Amelanchier (shadbush), Sorbus (rowans and whitebeams), Rubus (brambles or blackberries), Poa (meadow grasses), Hieracium (hawkweeds) and Taraxacum (dandelions).
Clouded Sulphurs nectar at flowers such as Milkweed (Asclepias sp.), Butterfly Bush (Buddleja sp.), Coneflower (Dracopis, Echinacea, and Rudbeckia), Alfalfa (Medicago sativa), Dandelion (Taraxacum sp.), Clover (Trifolium sp.), and Tall verbena (Verbena bonariensis) and many more.
The caterpillars feed on a variety of herbaceous plants, mainly Dandelion (Taraxacum species), Plantains (Plantago species), Deadnettles (Lamium species), Yarrow (Achillea species), Blackberries (Rubus species), Nettles (Urtica species), Knapweeds (Centaurea species) and Strawberries (Fragaria species).
The larvae feed on the leaves of various plants, including Plantago, Rumex, Fragaria, Stellaria, Lamium, Centaurea, Pulsatilla and Taraxacum species.
Plant species occurring with this cinquefoil in multiple habitat types include prairie junegrass (Koeleria macrantha), elk sedge (Carex geyeri), western yarrow (Achillea millefolium), silvery lupine (Lupinus argenteus), common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), and beautiful fleabane (Erigeron formosissimus).
Taraxacum kok-saghyz was cultivated on a large scale in the Soviet Union between 1931 and 1950, as well as in the United States, the UK, Germany, Sweden and Spain during World War II as an emergency source of rubber when supplies of rubber from Hevea brasiliensis in Southeast Asia were threatened.
