Would appreciate getting an ID for this lovely plant.

Thank you in advance,
Mariana

And I would appreciate an ID for the insect :-)

Hi Mary, it looks like it could possibly be a Psithyrus rupestris, one of
the darker bees. Not sure, though. OTOH it could be a Bombus lapidarius,
but their bums are oranger, however their wings are more transparent. I'd
go for the first.

HTH :-)
