Caterpillar Identification.

Aurora, ON(Zone 5b)

Noticed a hairy caterpillar with light yellowish hair (and yellow head) on a culver's root cultivar. Have never seen a caterpillar eating the culver's root though have around a dozen plants. Was on the cultivar Lavendelturm. Found a second on garage floor by plant waste bags and placed it on same plant. Did not cut the plant back as normally do.

The two (or portions of them).

They seem to have disappeared: don't know if they're chrysalises or were something's diner!
