    		 This large green catarpillar and his cohorts have completely desimated my cannas this year (as shown in picture one). They then roll up the leaf edge, seal it shut and form a paper-like chrysilis. Is this a good bug or a bad bug? I hate to see my cannas in this condition, but can cut them a little slack if they become a beautiful butterfly.
