Painted Lady ( Caterpillar )

Description:

On Saturday, June 03, 2017, I went to the garden center, to buy some potted plants. On Tuesday morning, June 06, 2017, I spotted a long caterpillar, eating from one of the leaves, from one of the potted plants, that I bought at the garden center. This caterpillar, was one and one fourth of an inch long. This caterpillar, has long spines on its body. The color of this caterpillar, is grayish brown. I'm going to let this caterpillar, eat and grow, until it turns into a pupa.
