size:65% Stephanie might have some takers to her host plants 23:07.566 --> 23:10.133 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% that she'd be willing to share with our visitors. 23:10.233 --> 23:13.466 align:left position:20% line:83% size:70% >> Stephanie, I know that you have a sharp eye, 23:13.566 --> 23:16.733 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% because you often pointed out things to us. 23:16.833 --> 23:18.600 align:left position:37.5% line:83% size:52.5% Do you have some pictures of things 23:18.700 --> 23:19.833 align:left position:30% line:89% size:60% that you run into 23:19.933

23:24.800 --> 23:26.300 align:left position:30% line:5% size:60% >> Why, yes I do. 23:26.400 --> 23:28.733 align:left position:17.5% line:5% size:72.5% And I don't know if my eyes are very sharp, 23:28.833 --> 23:31.666 align:left position:37.5% line:5% size:52.5% because one hitchhiked its way 23:31.766 --> 23:35.766 align:left position:32.5% line:5% size:57.5% inside my house on a bouquet, I had cut. 23:35.866 --> 23:41.000 align:left position:30% line:5% size:60% I cut some stems of blazing star of the Liatris. 23:41.100 --> 23:43.666 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% We've talked about it in a previous show. 23:43.766 --> 23:45.933 align:left position:17.5% line:89% size:72.5% I brought it in a bouquet. 23:46.033 --> 23:48.366 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% I was working in my kitchen one day 23:48.466 --> 23:51.266 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% and I noticed on the countertop 23:51.366 --> 23:54.733 align:left position:20% line:89% size:70% some little black specks. 23:54.833 --> 23:57.466 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% Those of us that know caterpillars 23:57.566 --> 24:00.233 align:left position:27.5% line:83% size:62.5% will recognize that little trail of frass 24:00.333 --> 24:03.100 align:left position:20% line:83% size:70% or droppings that you can see underneath caterpillars 24:03.200 --> 24:04.600 align:left position:27.5% line:89% size:62.5% as they're feeding. 24:04.700 --> 24:08.066 align:left position:27.5% line:83% size:62.5% So, I inspected my bouquet more closely 24:08.166 --> 24:11.300 align:left position:17.5% line:89% size:72.5% and really had a hard time 24:11.400 --> 24:13.100 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% finding these little hitch hikers, 24:13.200 --> 24:16.966 align:left position:15% line:89% size:75% because they are camouflaged. 24:17.066 --> 24:19.533 align:left position:25% line:89% size:65% This particular larva 24:19.633 --> 24:23.400 align:left position:27.5% line:83% size:62.5% is the larva phase of a moth, 24:23.500 --> 24:27.200 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% and it sticks little pieces of the blossom 24:27.300 --> 24:29.333 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% of the plant that it's feeding on, 24:29.433 --> 24:32.233 align:left position:35% line:89% size:55% on it's back. 24:32.333 --> 24:39.500 align:left position:17.5% line:83% size:72.5% It was just happily eating on my Liatris in my bouquet, 24:39.600 --> 24:41.366 align:left position:37.5% line:83% size:52.5% When I took those stems outside 24:41.466 --> 24:43.566 align:left position:27.5% line:83% size:62.5% I found I actually had three of them. 24:43.666 --> 24:47.233 align:left position:22.5% line:83% size:67.5% So, I brought them back to my clump of plants 24:47.333 --> 24:51.100 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% so that they can continue on in feeding. 24:51.200 --> 24:53.333 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% So, you will see some photos of that 24:53.433 --> 24:55.566 align:left position:15% line:89% size:75% the little camouflage looper, 24:55.666 --> 24:59.966 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% and that is actually the Wavy-lined Emerald Moth 25:00.066 --> 25:03.166 align:left position:32.5% line:89% size:57.5% that does that. 25:03.266 --> 25:05.300 align:left position:37.5% line:83% size:52.5% When those caterpillars mature 25:05.400 --> 25:07.766 align:left position:37.5% line:83% size:52.5% that's what those would be. 25:07.866 --> 25:11.833 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% So, that was my first little share of show and tell. 25:11.933 --> 25:15.533 align:left position:32.5% line:83% size:57.5% Then secondly, I was checking on 25:15.633 --> 25:20.600 align:left position:20% line:83% size:70% my limelight hydrangeas, the hydrangea paniculata 25:20.700 --> 25:22.533 align:left position:20% line:89% size:70% and the blooms were just 25:22.633 --> 25:24.666 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% starting to come out this summer 25:24.766 --> 25:26.733 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% and I noticed something had been feeding 25:26.833 --> 25:29.066 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% on the leaves and so I was looking closely, 25:29.166 --> 25:36.466 align:left position:17.5% line:83% size:72.5% and it was just about dusk and saw some very fluffy 25:36.566 --> 25:38.233 align:left position:20% line:89% size:70% woolly bear caterpillars, 25:38.333 --> 25:40.133 align:left position:15% line:89% size:75% some white or actually yellow 25:40.233 --> 25:43.166 align:left position:20% line:83% size:70% their common name is the yellow wooly bear caterpillar. 25:43.266 --> 25:46.666 align:left position:32.5% line:83% size:57.5% So, to me they appeared more creamy 25:46.766 --> 25:49.700 align:left position:32.5% line:83% size:57.5% white and very, very fluffy. 25:49.800 --> 25:51.366 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% They were feeding on the leaves there 25:51.466 --> 25:56.133 align:left position:32.5% line:83% size:57.5% and that is the Virginia Tiger Moth Larva. 25:56.233 --> 25:58.266 align:left position:12.5% line:89% size:77.5% I guess I would just recommend, 25:58.366 --> 26:01.433 align:left position:12.5% line:89% size:77.5% and just remind everybody that 26:01.533 --> 26:03.966 align:left position:15% line:89% size:75% if you have an insect problem 26:04.066 --> 26:05.966 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% try to hand pick your caterpillars first, 26:06.066 --> 26:08.733 align:left position:15% line:83% size:75% because you don't understand how many caterpillars 26:08.833 --> 26:10.400 align:left position:27.5% line:83% size:62.5% are in your garden and in your yard. 26:10.500 --> 26:12.833 align:left position:22.5% line:83% size:67.5% You're just not seeing them every day. 26:12.933 --> 26:14.700 align:left position:22.5% line:83% size:67.5% You're just not looking closely or maybe you're 26:14.800 --> 26:17.800 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% just missing the time that they're out feeding. 26:17.900 --> 26:20.833 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% So, keep that in mind when you reach for a pesticide 26:20.933 --> 26:21.933 align:left position:32.5% line:89% size:57.5% or a treatment. 26:22.033 --> 26:23.033 align:left position:27.5% line:89% size:62.5% So, just target it, 26:23.133 --> 26:25.933 align:left position:22.5% line:83% size:67.5% and only use it as much as appropriate. 26:26.033 --> 26:29.666 align:left position:20% line:89% size:70% >> And usually with these 26:29.766 --> 26:31.266 align:left position:37.5% line:83% size:52.5% it's not - if you're trying 26:31.366 --> 26:33.933 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% to grow brassica, sometimes you have 26:34.033 --> 26:38.100 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% to use some - take some actual steps 26:38.200 --> 26:41.766 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% to reduce the number, the feeding, 26:41.866 --> 26:44.366 align:left position:40% line:83% size:50% but these unusual caterpillars, 26:44.466 --> 26:45.966 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% generally aren't going to eat 26:46.066 --> 26:47.933 align:left position:40% line:83% size:50% that much of the plant. Are they? 26:48.033 --> 26:49.966 align:left position:17.5% line:83% size:72.5% >> No. As a matter of fact, I can't even tell 26:50.066 --> 26:52.866 align:left position:22.5% line:83% size:67.5% there's been any damage to my hydrangeas 26:52.966 --> 26:55.000 align:left position:35% line:83% size:55% or my Liatris at this point. 26:55.100 --> 26:58.766 align:left position:15% line:89% size:75% There's just a few on there. 26:58.866 --> 26:59.800 align:left position:30% line:89% size:60% I'm not even sure 26:59.900 --> 27:02.366 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% if these folks these little caterpillars 27:02.466 --> 27:04.400 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% matured too long this year, 27:04.500 --> 27:06.166 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% because we have a lot of birds in our yard. 27:06.266 --> 27:08.600 align:left position:30% line:83% size:60% So, they may have ended up being bird food, 27:08.700 --> 27:09.833 align:left position:27.5% line:89% size:62.5% but you never know. 27:09.933 --> 27:11.266 align:left position:40% line:89% size:50% [laughs] 27:11.366 --> 27:13.166 align:left position:25% line:83% size:65% <Amanda> All part of nature's plan.
