Pink Burr Flower: The 142nd Flower of Spring & Summer! (1 more picture below!)

Pink Burr Flower: The 142nd Flower of Spring & Summer! (1 more picture below!)
This tiny, delicate beauty grows everywhere on our property, and when it goes to seed, it makes millions and billions and zillions of tiny, annoying burrs. These then attach themselves to anything passing by. Socks can become so covered that it's easier to just throw them away than to spend an hour per sock to remove all of the burrs! We can't let Molly, our Border Collie, wander off our road during the late summer and fall because when she returns, she is totally covered from head to foot in burrs! What a nightmare!

Since this is such an annoying weed, I wasn't surprised when I couldn't find the name of this wildflower! So for now, it's a Pink Burr Flower! (Not to be confused with White Burr Flower, which is a similar species but pure white...that will be coming up in the Flower Count! :D)
