How can you eradicate small caterpillars that are infesting your canna lilies?
A caterpillar called a leaf roller is a common problem to cannas. Regular applications of an insecticide soap purchased from a garden store can help control, but to truly eradicate the leaf roller, three or four weekly applications of BT, bacillus thuringiensis, will stop this pests life cycle. The leaf roller ingests the product while eating the folded leaf and can no longer eat afterwards, dying from starvation. BT only affects this type of caterpillar while it is harmless to other beneficial insects. Because it has to eat the BT to be effective, you may find evidence of the pest's leavings inside when releasing the caterpillar's webbing from a leaf, but the leaf roller itself will be dead or gone. Application of these two suggestions should be done in late evenings. Both the soap and the BT are much friendlier to the environment than true poisons by selectively controlling this pest. Use one and wait to see results before applying the other.

What is the biblical meaning of lilies of the field?
The phrase the lilies of the field is part of Jesus' sermon on the mount as recorded at Matthew 6:26-34 (compare Luke 12:27-31.)
At this point in his sermon he was encouraging his listeners to put the kingdom of God first in their lives, and not to worry too much about other daily/mundane necessities, such food and, in this particular instance, clothing.
"And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?" ~King James Version.
Some have suggested that Jesus may have been referring to a particular type of wild flower when he said the lilies of the field. Alternatively, as the context indicates, perhaps he was just referring to vegetation in general. Either way, he was illustrating his good counsel with an example drawn from nature, using something that all people, from their own knowledge and experience, can understood and appreciate.
Jesus therefore used the poetic phrase the lilies of the field as part of his well-known Sermon on the Mount, the overall objective of which was to teach his followers to have a more spiritual attitude and outlook, and, in this particular context cited, to remind them that God knows and will always satisfy the needs of those who look to God.

Consider The Lilies - Joyful Singers
Consider the lilies
They don't toil or spin
And there's not a king
With more splendor than them
Consider the sparrow
They don't plant or sow
But they're fed by the master
Who watches him grow
We have a heavenly father above
With eyes full of mercy
And a heart full of love
He really cares when
Your head is bowed low
Consider the lilies
And then you will know
May I introduce you
To this friend of mine
Who hangs out the stars
And tells the sun when to shine
He kisses the flowers
Each morning with dew
But He's not too busy
To love me and you
We have a heavenly father above
With eyes full of mercy
And a heart full of love
He really cares when
Your head is bowed low
Consider the lilies
