Prickly Ash Branches with Leaves - 50 pieces - Food for Swallowtail Butterfly Larvae

?Thank you for a wonderful year filled with enjoyable conversations with many repeat customers. We look forward to your continued patronage in 2026! (*^-^*) The new shoots have just begun to emerge, so they are all tender but still small. Swallowtail butterflies have started to appear, so this is an urgent offering for those who need it.

?We generally ship on the same day for purchases and payments made by 12:00 PM. If stock is available, we can also ship on the same day for purchases and payments made around 5:00 PM.

?The number of leaves may be adjusted slightly depending on their size, but the overall volume (approximately 1g per leaf) will remain the same as before.

?We take great care in preparing these leaves, including removing thorns as much as possible, eliminating parasite eggs, and shipping daily throughout the season, rain or shine. We pride ourselves on the meticulous care we put into growing our food plants, which is entirely different from simply collecting leaves from unknown locations or roadsides. We believe that feeding larvae with unknown origins is the most dangerous approach.

?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 food is available for everyone until the end.

?We take measures to ensure adequate hydration and moisture retention, and we deliver directly to the Yamato Transport office for the final shipment at 7:00 PM. Unlike shipping through convenience stores or post offices, this minimizes transit time. For nearby locations, the leaves are transported during the cool evening and delivered to your mailbox by morning. Like leafy vegetables, they will last longer if stored in the vegetable crisper of your refrigerator. Please mist them with water occasionally. They can last from 2 weeks to 2 months.

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