you pour hot water
it will open and then there is red colour flower inside
i had it at legends the other day....
so found out that these are called "shou gong cha"
the inside red part is actually sewed onto the pokey part which is green tea
this 'tea pal' stall sells them
5 in a nice tin $18!!!
but the 5 are 5 different types
if all are the red-centre one i was looking for
i would have bought it
next time bah
i want to buy for my colleague who has cancer also

I know of a kind of tea... but I don't know what it's called. I only know when it's in the hot water, it's a red flower and turns the water pink. Not sure if it's the same one as your shou gong cha. I think it smells sweet, if I didn't recall wrongly. Same or not?
5 for $18? How big is each flower?

Where is the tea pal stall?
