OH NO!!! YOU LET IT LOOSE IN YOUR FLOWER BED????? no clue.
It is possibly the Hyles Euphorbiae larva. It will become the Spurge Hawk Moth and is used to help rid areas of noxious weeds. It is a rather pretty moth.
It's one of the Hornworms. Post an image on bugguide.net & you will get an answer soon...
That is a lovely caterpillar for sure. Great color and rather unique to those that I normally see in this area. You did a good job of photographing it.
