Indeed! Arwin... it is rather the finger wheel that looks like a flower rather than the phone itself. But it's nice... However, this finger Wheel must be wrong-easy to use isn't it ??

I doubt it, I reckon they just liked calling phones after flowers, for example - this one is another old Polish phone called "Tulipan", which you might guess means tulip.

If you're interested, here's a link to website ( http://www.milicja.net/?urzadzenia-i-nie-tylko,32 ) where you can see more old Polish phones and majority of them are named after flowers.

Actually, that was the other thing that went through my mind. I wondered if in Poland it was common practice to name phones after flowers.

PTT named their phones from the late eighties and from the nineties after Cities, for example.

Nice site. I added it to my favorites.
