Which came first, the Flower or the Bee?

We commonly hear “Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” Isn’t this question an ever more fascinating one? Flowers depend on bees spreading their pollen for the reproductive cycle that ensures the plant’s survival generation after generation. And bees depend on the pollen and nectar of flowers to provide food for themselves and their future generations. How did the remarkable codependency evolve? Which came first?
