Natural mutation?

On the edge of a field of oil seed rape, this dandelion had one normal seedhead and one weird one on a great thick stalk.


It seemed to have four sets of sepals on top .. .. ..


.. .. ..  and five more sets underneath



Looking from the side, I think it had grown four, five or more  seedheads facing sideways all round.


I wonder what the flower had looked like.
