Who said that nature does not produce right angles?

"Everyone always says" that nature cannot produce a right angle.

Gentle curves - all day long. Sharp bends? Well, yes, we've all seen a few of those, but never right angles. Not geometrically precise right angles.

Exhibit A, m'lud:

What's that, if not a right angle! 

(*laughs*)

This is a Hollyhock (Alcea) which had grown at least 7' tall, then flopped over on to the ground, and then carried on growing upwards.

Spiffing, eh? (*laughs again*)

I would call that a right angle, wouldn't you?
