There isn't a ton of these plants naturally accruing but they are around. I love them, I think they are beautiful! And thanks for the ID! I will look them both up and see what I think. I didn't know it was a s simple as "honey bee!" :)

My boyfriend took a picture of a honey bee on this exact same plant. I think it's some kind of milkweed? Apparently there are only two in the whole city of Portland! Maybe there are more in Colorado, but it's cool that you have one because I guess they're really important for monarchs.

That most likely is ether a Honey bee or a Drone bee.
