Great that you rediscovered the 135-degree-rose. I did not name it back in 2002 but I don't like the name "Worsen" – to me it only sounds like a verb with the meaning "to make worse; to become worse".

I suggest "Rose of Jericho" for this piece. The move pattern reminds me to the ball shape of that plant in dried up state.
