    Hey everyone,

    I have a fascinating plant in my garden but no idea what it is.

    It has hot pink flowers that have a crinkled sort of look. I've attached a photo. But what I find interesting is that every night all of the petals fall off, every single one and it looks like any other green bush! Then in the morning the plant is covered in pink again.

    Any ideas?

    Kevin
