IDK exactly who/what they are, but of course they live in tiny hives!

I noticed similar tiny bees visiting my purslane blooms. They are not honey bees, and I wonder what kind of bees they are? And where do they live?


Thats a good question. Why i never think about this before Smiling

I am not sure what kind of bee they are. After some googling, they could be Trigona bee. They look so similar to the bee on the site below :

I did not buy from this company but I did buy 3 of these plants. I'm so excited to see them bloom.

I also bought plain pink, orange, and white.

I found them all at a nursery. This is the nursery where I bought them.

These have happened spontaneously. All of my plants come from cuttings of 2 original source plants, solid orange & solid fuchsia colored.
