Although technically a south Florida native butterfly, Green Malachites are all but extinct in the wild because their larvae only eat a certain SHRIMP PLANT.
I purchased three living chrysalis from BUTTERFLY WORLD in Coconut Creek Florida (A giant walk through tropical butterfly aviary) and I hatched and released them into my yard.
I have two such shrimp plants.
Fingers crossed.
