Anyone know what this is....or what it will turn into? I found it on a petunia. Right now I have it in a jar with some leaves and it seems happy.

I was hoping by posting your message in this forum that someone would know what this is.

I have a feeling it's a moth, but not sure what kind. Be sure and let me know what it grows up to be.

Thank you, Terrie. I was told it is a tabacco budworm.....which turns into a moth. :o( My DS was very disappointed.
