I came across this yesterday. First I noticed one, then I started seeing them everywhere. The only bugs I have really seen on these plants have been ladybug larvae so I am wondering are these ladybugs mid-metamorphosis?
Also they are stuck to the plant, I could not easily remove them. I didn't want to kill it until I knew what it was so they were left in place.

Disregard, after searching the right thing in google, it turns out these are definitely ladybug pupae
 
Yes, they are ladybug pupae, its really strange that I have never seen them before. There must have been 30-40 of them on one row of Butch Ts. I am glad to see them!
