Eriocapitella hupehensis (Japanese anemone) and Bombus (bumblebee)
I've always called this flower a Japanese anemone (Anemone Japonica) but in 2018 it was officially renamed Eriocapitella hupehensis. It's new species name means "from Hupeh province, China". Unfortunately, most gardening websites (and all the plant shops I visit) still refer to this as a Japanese anemone. Change comes slowly to the gardening world and I'm sure people will still be calling this a Japanese anemone in a thousand year's time.
As for the 'positive affirmation' message rocks, I avoid these things in my own garden. I much prefer it when my flowers speak for themselves.
