Bubble chart without numbers

Is it so that you have to have numerical values for all the data in a bubble chart?
I've got a table with 4 columns, but only one of them contains numbers.

I want the Y-axis to be the product_name, the X-axis to be the Country and the size of the bubble to be the sum(product_price) for the product.
Looking around there seems to have been an issue before:

<option name="charting.axisY">category</option>

 But that does nothing, I still get the axises with numbers and not the text and all the bubbles piled up in the corner.
