Plant growth cycles are controlled primarily by degree units.  When a plant 
has accumulated enough degree units it can break dormancy, bloom, emerge 
from the ground, etc.  So yes to your question.  If dandelion bloom is late 
the rest of the plants SHOULD bloom in the normal sequence, but later than 
normal.
