K, I need a little help. My boss has some flowers planted in his yard, but has no idea what they are.?

He says they are an old timey flower. The blooms are orange in color and are actually a bunch of little blooms making it look like one big bloom on top of a stalk. I have not personally seen these close up. But he states the blooms sort of look like blooms on lantana. He also states he has only seen it in one yard - his. So, if anyone has an idea of what it "may" be, it would be appreciated if you could give me a name. We are in SE USA. Thanks.

I'm thinking it may be a yarrow? Yarrow has fern-like foliage and a flat cluster of flowers at the top and comes in many colors...although I haven't seen one I would call orange... ?
Reply:it could be orange lantana.

Reply:It might be in the allium family. Does the stem look like a scallion? On the other hand, if it is lantana the stems will be almost woody.
