Botany: pink yarrow

Self-tutoring about botany: the tutor notices pink yarrow.

In my last post about yarrow I mention seeing some with red flowers. Almost always, though, the yarrow I see is white.

Yet, in a grove of white yarrow, I’ve recently noticed a single pink bloom. The red yarrow I saw in a landscaping arrangement; this pink bloom is wild. It’s the first coloured yarrow I’ve seen in an unmanaged scenario.
