My grandfather had these hedge like bushes with giant red flowers lining the front windows that always had bumblebees. Im not great with identifying flowers; looked like Hibiscus maybe, but in a somewhat dense bush or hedge structure. Anyway, the bumblebees loved that. Didn't notice them anywhere else on the property, and the first time I saw them (4-5yo) I was quite terrified and would have remembered. They were huge and fury with bold colors and not afraid me, but not so scary after I learned about paper wasp from playing around in the wood-shed.
