It is typical of large flowers to be torn. The wind tears them, the rain makes them mucky, they get stuck between leaves and get mashed, they can be getting chewed by insects and that will cause more tearing and the list could go on.

The smaller 2-4 inch flowers almost never get torn but they too are sometimes seen looking like they are having a bad hair day as well. However,on the good day when the gusty early morning wind hasn`t torn them to pieces and you see a bunch of perfect flowers it is worth passing over the torn ones and taking a picture of the nice looking ones.

A sight like this is worth the wait. This is the pod parent of the bunch on a good day.
