The plant, in the family Plantaginaceae, is named after the botanist Edward Palmer.” - Wikipedia “Bombus pensylvanicus, the American bumblebee, is a threatened species of bumblebee native to North America. It occurs in eastern Canada, throughout much of the Eastern United States, and much of Mexico. Once the most prevalent bumblebee in the southern United States, populations of Bombus pensylvanicus have decreased significantly in recent years, including in its scientific namesake state of Pennsylvania where its numbers are considered critically low.[4] Overall, the population has dropped nearly 90% in just the last 20 years. Bombus pensylvanicus tends to live and nest in open farmland and fields. It feeds on several food plants, favoring sunflowers and clovers, and functions as a pollinator.” - Wikipedia #PastPhotoFavorites #AmericanBumblebee #BombusPensylvanicus #PalmersPenstemon #PenstemonPalmer #Penstemon #Wildflower #NewMexicoFlowers #W;’ildflowers #WildflowersOfInstagram #BumblebeesOfInstagram (at Santa Fe, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnfMQfkPbyt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
