Knolan,

Here is the chrysalis. These giants, both, can be reaised indoors. If you have them on a cassia bush, just keep bringing in cuttings that have the flowers - the eggs are placed on the flowers as that is their preferred food. When they are ready to emerge the chrysalis shell gets very transparent and you can fully see the new butterfly. Like the ST's they don't take long to dry their wings and fly.
