@Laura at Rather Square: OMG! how extraordinary you are!!!! As soon as I saw your post I ran out to take a look, I remembered which plant it was. Sure enough, there was the egg, right there. Thank God they take a few days to hatch. I found another one too. I had looked at that plant before and had not noticed it. I typically was looking at the main stem near the ground. But I will look at the stems and leaves as well from now on. That feels like a daunting task....And while I was there I saw a SVB trying to lay eggs. Those things are fast. I could not swat it. Well I am hoping it gets caught on a sticky trap or goes to my Hubbard squash traps.
The main stem does not feel hollow on these young plants. Does it become hollow as the plant matures? Or I just cant tell? Can the larvae destroy an young plant whose stem is not yet hollow?
Thank you so much Laura! I might be able to find the eggs better now.
