another (very unusual) wild flower

[the_count]

Looks very simlar to an ornamental onion my mum used to have but much much smaller the flower head is about the same size as a 2p and there was a small patch of about 30 on one of the headlands past the castle

Whats the leaves like.........because the flower looks like something which has come up in my garden from a seed packet of cottage garden flowers (none of which were named)?

[Taraxacum]

Hi, Count.

Onion individual flowers are star-like. This might be Devil's-bit Scabious (Succisa pratensis). I need to see the whole plant rather than a close up of the flower head to be sure.
