Amazing numbers of American Lady caterpillars this year in my yard. This plant had 15 caterpillars out and feeding yesterday and more cats in the nests. The early caterpillars were probably taken as food for baby birds. I saw wrens hunting in the area. The plant has been id'd as purple cudweed, also called spoonleaf purple everlasting by a friend, Michael Pasquarello.
