Strange name for a lovely flower - I always think of bubble gum being much pinker.

I think the plant name is right, Moti - just peculiar naming!

I think it looks like "Dubble Bubble" used to love that stuff when I was a kid....pretty shaped flower and great colour, maybe a little watermelony.

Yes, it was a "bubble gum" specially for blowing big pink bubbles...It was very annoying for teachers and parents alike, but as a child it was delicious and it had it's own flavour too... Now I go to a special icecream store because they have bubble gum flavoured ice cream! lol....somethings you just never give up. ;-)
