Popotan
Three sisters live together with their maid in a house that travels from place to place:
Ai, the kind-hearted, oldest sister has the power to talk with flowers; Mai, the athletic high school girl, has the power to perform seemingly impossible athletic moves; and Mii, the little sister, a "magical girl" has the power to heal.
Mea their android maid, prefers her time off, is a glutton, and cannot resist sarcastic comments.
On their travels the girls make friends while seeking something that only the Popotan (their name for dandelions) know about.
