You may be right, but I do wonder what caused the mutation. This morning the yellow flowers, a few hours later, they were gone, two hours later a seed head opened and when I was digging it up, it let loose a million seeds on little tiny wings just like a dandelion, lol. I have never seen anything with a life cycle that fast!
Dandelions bloom only a few times, and are only open when the sun is up. So it is possible that you found it at the tail end.
Perhaps it was growing next to something that mutated it.
Four leaf clovers are a mutation and are found around dandilions if I remember correctly.
I did not know about the clover around the dandelions.I have LOTS of dandelions around. I drink dandelion tea on a regular basis. Why pay for it when it is easy to grow more than I could every need, lol.
