Yes sir (Argybee), I also read about them in botany, as these flowers don't have any scent or aesthetic beauty they developed their floral leaves (bracts) to beautiful purple structures for attracting pollinators

Magnificent specimen!
You can see some of the white flowers also. Many people don't realise the purple is leaves.
