name this bloom

Found this in a local park garden bed. The bloom reminds me of a pincushion flower but the plants are taller, lankier and have more branching. Wiry long stems and medium green foliage. The area was a bit overgrown so I unfortunately didn't get a better photo of the plant. Bloom was about an inch in diameter and appeared from mid to late summer. Seeds are light green oblong and cylindrical, distinctly different from the pincushion flower. Thanks for your help!
