Dandelion was a Crayola crayon color introduced in 1990, replacing the standard "yellow" as part of Crayola's first ever color replacements. It is best known for its controversial removal and following popularity among collectors.




Retirement


While Crayola had retired colors before, Dandelion was the first color to be removed from the box set in the 114 years since Crayola's establishment. Crayola wanted space to add a blue crayon (Bluetiful) made with the newly discovered YinMn pigment to their 24 pack, which was announced at and had an event in Times Square livestreamed on Facebook, on March 31, 2017.
Reactions to the removal and replacement of Dandelion were controversial. Nicole Gallucci of Mashable felt that despite the science behind the new blue, it was generic and not worth losing Dandelion for.
