Madam,

Corolla can be "red to orange" - http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=200023631

or

"yellow to red" - http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=1&taxon_id=200023631

But, please wait for experts' views.

Thank you

Regards

surajit

Surajit Ji have rightly identified this, Carthamus tinctorius...the safflower, not a rare plant, cultivated for oil from seeds, decoration and for dye yielding (from dried flowers), rarely found as an escape...the corolla is light to deep yellow, turns orange on maturity or, to be precise, on drying up, as you can see in your picture..
