Extreme closeup showing how individual seeds (pappus) are attached to the seed head of a dandelion.

Extreme close-up of a dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) seed head. The central, greenish, textured dome is surrounded by numerous attached seeds, each with ribbed, elongated brown structures. The seeds are arranged radially around the dome, with fine, white filaments extending outward, likely part of the pappus aiding in wind dispersal. The intricate detail highlights the seed attachment and arrangement.
