Bees eating Plumbago?

Last night my husband and I bought two small "Imperial Blue Plumbago", now this morning there are small bees cutting and carrying off the leaves!
What should we do? We do not wish to kill the bees, but is this bad for the plants? And how can we dissuade the bees?

Thanks in Advance,
Sandee

Sounds like you have Leafcutter Bees.
