Q: What's the Chinese name for the kind of tea that "blooms" when you steep it?

Sorry for the overly-specific question. I have a friend back home who wants me to bring her some of this kind of tea (not sure if there are different varients or not). I know what she's talking about and I've had it before, but I have no idea what its called or how to describe it to a tea shop person.

Any tea connoisseurs out there know what in the hell I'm talking about? Thanks.
