It is from greenish (or whitish), oval-shaped eggs that a tomato plant's green worms come.
Specifically, the green worm in question functions as the caterpillar stage of the five-spotted hawkmoth (Manduca quinquemaculata). The mother lays the eggs on the under or upper surfaces of the leaves of host plants (eggplant, moonflower, potato, tobacco, tomato). The eggs generally will hatch in 5-8 days. The larvae generally will live 3-4 weeks before pupating 2 weeks in summer or overwintering in fall.
