This is sometimes known as the violet dandelion, but that doesn't really do it justice. It is a perennial, with stems about 50 cm long, but trailing rather than held upright. Each stem has a few of the pretty violet flowers, which are not as densely packed with florets as a dandelion. It comes from Nepal.
