Prickly Ash Branches with Leaves, 200 pcs - Food for Swallowtail Butterfly Larvae

?Thank you for a wonderful year in 2025, filled with enjoyable conversations with many repeat customers. We look forward to continuing our relationship in 2026! (*^-^*)

?We generally ship on the same day for purchases and payments made by 12 PM. If stock is available, we can also ship on the same day for purchases and payments made around 5 PM.

?The number of leaves may be adjusted slightly depending on their size, but the overall volume will remain consistent, with each leaf weighing approximately 1g.

?We take great pride in the meticulous care we put into our leaves, from removing thorns and eliminating parasite eggs to ensuring same-day shipping every day, rain or shine, throughout the season. Unlike leaves collected haphazardly from unknown locations or roadsides, our leaves come from plants we carefully cultivate. We believe that using food sources of unknown origin is the most dangerous.

?As the season progresses and the rainy season ends, you may find some leaves with slight blackening on the underside, minor tears, or curled edges. These are natural occurrences, and we have observed eggs laid on such leaves and larvae feeding on them to grow. In fact, thousands of larvae have successfully hatched and emerged each year after feeding on our imperfect leaves.

?We strive to ensure a stable supply of food plants from April to the end of November each year. Therefore, we offer all the food plants we can obtain, as we cannot afford to waste even a single branch unless absolutely necessary. We kindly ask for your cooperation in ensuring that these food sources are distributed to everyone.

?We take great care to hydrate and moisturize the leaves before shipping. By directly delivering them to the Yamato Transport service center for the final 7 PM pickup, we avoid the unnecessary delays associated with shipping from convenience stores or post offices. For nearby locations, the leaves are transported overnight and can be delivered to your mailbox by morning. Like leafy vegetables, they will last longer if stored in the vegetable crisper of your refrigerator. Occasional misting is recommended. They can last from two weeks to two months.

?For regions that typically take two days for delivery (such as Okinawa, Kyushu, Shikoku, Hokkaido, and the far ends of Honshu), please understand that delivery may take longer before making your purchase.
