The only two USA moth results from the HOSTs database were a webworm moth and a tussock moth.

For nectar purposes, not likely any one moth would restrict itself to this plant.

I cannot find any other references linking one moth and S. trifolia.

Thank you! I was just really curious. I learned this Spring about the blueberry bee being active for such a short time each year. Thought maybe there is a moth being similar in this aspect.

I too had read that from the Possibility Place. They are local to me and when I went there to purchase some items, saw a large shrub that really caught my eye. One of the owners told me he loved Bladdernut - and well, I bought maybe 10 of them. I still want to know which moth this is and posted asking to their site but no response. I might try again. Maybe ask on Facebook?

I actually emailed them. She couldn’t recall the name, said if she would come across it in her notes she would let me know. Didn’t hear back after that.

Meagain1, Are you referring to the Possability Place native plant nursery in Illinois?
