Seed Bank
At our farm we grow a number of butterfly host plants, which, of cause, bloom and carry fruits with seeds. Rather than just disposing them off, we offer some of these seeds for exchange. In the future we will have seeds of other host plants as well.
| plant species | butterfly species |
| Daleschampia scandens | all Hamadryas sp. |
| Mucuna derringiana | Morpho peleides |
| Aristolochia tagala | most Troides spp., some Ornithoptera spp. and Pachliopta spp., like P. antiphus, P. kotzebuae, P. aristolochiae. |
| Crataeva religiosa (April/May only) | Appias lyncida, Pareronia valeria, Leptosia nina, Hebomoia glaucippe, etc. |
| Glycosmis sp. (Rutaceae) | various common Papilionidae spp. |
