That's a strange place to choose isn't it, you'll have to sacrifice that plant now!

I found a bumblebee sleeping under the compost in one of my hanging baskets when I replanted them a few weeks ago, heard it buzzing as I pulled out the old plants & it popped up looking disgruntled, I put it on a nearby plant to wake up properly.
