Mega-Dandelion Seed Size

How large, referring to weight, could a Dandelion seed become before the wind was no longer able to carry them away? Assume the physiology of both the seed and plant remain the same besides being scaled up in size. Also assume that the wind must be able to carry them under "normal" weather conditions with things such as gusts and breezes and discounting things such as tornadoes.

Any speculation as to the size of the seed's sail structure would also be appreciated.
