Don't I find some catchy titles? The bloom is Society Garlic a mild flowering garlic. The bug is...anybody's guess but a colorful contrast to the bloom.
you know the person to ask about bugs is MB @espyetta she personally knows each and almost every one of them. :-) fabulous capture of that colourful bug.
Checked in my bug book and I think it could be a Large Milkweed Bug- according to Audubon they are known to sip nectar from other garden plants and crops as well and since this one seems to be sipping nectar from a garlic plant it seems logical to come to that conclusion. Good shot Katy!
