Weekend Flowers: Rock Rose

I discovered this gorgeous little Rock Rose in my parent's garden. I love the crumpled petals. They look so soft & delicate - almost like tissue paper.

    Why are they so crinkled? They really DO look like tissue paper! That's so funny! =)

    Love the way these petals are still crinkled. Like a butterly when it first opens its wings.

    This is probably an ignorant question, but is this the Rock Rose used in the flower remedy of same name? The tissue paper comparison is perfect!
