CLOSED: What is a good citrus for the Giant Swallowtail?

zostropz San Diego, CA Jul 13, 2007

I know that the Giant Swallowtail favors certain citrus for laying it's eggs, and even certains types of those citrus. Anyone have any good suggestions? I want to get something here for them to lay on.
thanks,
Mark
