Default Passiflora bud insects?



Any idea what these green insects are?. Maybe aphid eggs?

Looks like butterfly eggs. The Gulf fritillary placed eggs all over my passies this year, and one was stripped clean. They're putting on new growth, and I got to see a lot of butterflies emerge, so it was worth not spraying.

Your right about the eggs being orange and soft. Can you scrape these off? Could it be another butterfly? What Passiflora do you have? Are these Petiolar nectaries?

The one with the green whatever they are is frederick's. This is the only passion vine I have that is not a host to the Gulf fritillary. Could be another butterfly.Not the Petiolar nectaries.
