I agree...stinkbugs appear to be increasing in numbers...thanks for the plant ID. Canna was the only plant I thought of that had that kind of variegation.

The stink bug is on a Canna Lily plant. But I see stink bugs everywhere in Pittsburgh. In fact a local friend of mine was telling me that she used to see so many ladybugs now she shes stinkbugs instead.

What plant is this stink bug on? Can't figure it out.
