This allows a dandelion in one location to act as a parent plant to offspring dandelions growing far from the original plant.

Why are dandelions a better competitor than other plants on school fields?
The dandelion produces seeds mainly in spring but continues through summer and autumn. The bitter leaves mean that not many animals eat it, so one flower can survive for many years. Dandelions are also adapted to being disturbed, so being moved doesn't limit their ability to grow. The deep, twisted, brittle root makes it difficult to remove entirely so unless you remove it entirely it will just regrow. The dandelion has a rosette of leaves at its base to help it compete with the surrounding grass. They can grow almost anywhere because of their resilience, and their small parachute like seeds, mean that they can be blown many miles from their mother plant. Dandelions also don't mind being trampled on meaning that they can survive where people walk often.
Why is the dandelion a symbol of survival for Katniss?
Dandelions don't symbolize Katniss' father. On page 388 of Mockingjay, Katniss tells how she and Peeta grow back together and goes on to say that Peeta represent the dandelion in the spring. That instead of the fire and kindled hatred that Gale has, she needs Peeta (who is calm and easy like a dandelion). The color of the dandelion in the spring, yellow, represents rebirth instead of destruction.
