What is the name of a flower formed of multiple small flowers that are rose & yellow, it's found in many parks

More than likely it's a Lantana. There are several varieties in different colors, but the pink/yellow/white combo is probably the most common. It grows like a weed here in Texas but usually dies back after the first frost and returns from roots/seeds in the spring.



This site has some good info and a picture.

Certainly could be Lantana but there is also a variety of Yarrow that is yellow with pink edges, very pretty.

If the leaf of the plant is soft and fern-like, it's probably yarrow, if the leaf is kind of oval shaped, it's probably lantana.
