This time I need some guidance from you folks. My outdoor bulbs are blooming. This year seems to be a terrible one for the destruction of blooms from chewing caterpillars. I assume that a moth or butterfly laid the eggs in the early bud. I haven't found good insect information from my sources so appreciate help. Is this at least a caterpillar of a particularly beautiful butterfly, if I am going to lose the majority of the flowers this spring?
