My World: Flower Portraits

Thank you

It appears to be myositis stricta!

Myosotis (/ˌmaɪəˈsoʊtɪs/ MY-ə-SOH-tiss[2]) is a genus of flowering plants in the family Boraginaceae. The name comes from the Ancient Greek μυοσωτίς "mouse's ear", which the foliage is thought to resemble.[3] In the Northern Hemisphere,they are colloquially known as forget-me-nots or scorpion grasses.

Such unusual petals with this unique crumpled appearance! I have never seen anything like this before!

Bravo

This plant does this, I have no idea why. Note that not all exemplars exhibit crumpled petals and some exemplars have red dots at the base of the petals.

I don't really have a good answer, but your Cistus flowers (Rock Rose) are very similar to poppies and anemones in the fact that their petals are very thin and delicate and paper-like. Both the Anemones and the poppy get these wrinkles, so maybe because they are very fragile. The fact that some had spots
and others not, can be 2 species beside each other of sometimes flowers turn back to their more common type. I know tulips do that all the time.
