    what is the name of this plant? also mostly these are growing in my lawn (since i haven't mowed in forever!) and all flowers but this one are white/creamy colored. they often have 2 maroon spots in the middle. why is this one pink and red? different plant?
    thanks :)

    This is a kind of carrot, probably just wild carrot (Daucus carota). I do not know why one of the plants has more intensely red flowers but it should be the same species unless the rest of the plant (bracts, leaves, hairy stems) looks different.
