A beer - thanks!
Can you make me a list of German beer so as I can choose one!
Jokes apart, is that the normal garden Bougainvilla - usually they have yellow tubular florets not pinkish. Very clever to remove the purple bracts (or they are just modified leaves?!) - it confused everyone I think!
PS, you are allowed to make more quizes this year if there is a beer linked with them

I prefer non-"man-mutated" pics please. I could make a crucifer with 8 orange petals without anyone noticing. The thing is that while I (and maybe others) was researching the flower to have an answer, I gave the 'pink' some importance and so I was mislead.jackpot wrote: The pinkish touch of the corolla was the result of changing the colour of the bracts via Photoshop![]()
