Fraxinella
Apis shrugged. It was all in a day’s work. He dipped his wings in
salute and zoomed off. Fraxinella was content. The roses would have

Note: Dictamnus is a genus of flowering plant in the family Rutaceae, with a single
species, Dictamnus albus, which has several geographical variants. It is also known as
burning bush, dittany, gas plant, and fraxinella. The name "burning bush" derives
from the volatile oils produced by the plant, which can catch fire readily in hot
weather. --Wikipedia
