I doubt there is a definitive answer to that question but you can find out about dandelions here. They generally grow up to 20" long, over a period of roughly two weeks.

You must have very big dandelions, queenie... The ones in my garden can put up a flower stem overnight - about three inches. Roots go down a long way, but it's a bit hard to measure that in the garden.

I think she means 20 inches altogether, not in one day.
