Hi does anyone know the name of this shrub? It flowers early spring,took this photo today. It's nectar rich for bees if anyone's interested? (There's a solitary bee that lives near it,I see it every day,even when its a grey day. I'v found a couple of tiny nests within 2 ft & in the centre of it,over the years. In warmer weather,its normal to see about 6 bees at a time on it,maybe more. I think a solitary bee lays eggs & its the babies I see,because they're smaller bees,they come out & feed on it when its a bit warmer,then feed off everything else,then fly away). Thanks for your help
