Why would it not be 3?
There's 3 flower types total. Out of all 3, they're all that flower except 2. So there's 3 flowers.
The Qualcomm one is pretty easy too. Drop 1 bulb every 10 floors, once it breaks, go down 1 floor until you find the floor that it doesn't break on. This way 20 bulbs would be enough to find the answer

Is switching floors considered instant and effortless? If so, then you'd only need 7 bulbs.
Also, Excel.

I never said you would need all 20. The point is it can be done without going over 20. The # of bulbs you would need would be determined by the height at which they break. There's no way to tell how many you'd use without knowing that number.
