?2025 has been a wonderful year, filled with enjoyable conversations with many repeat customers. We look forward to your continued patronage in 2026! (*^-^*)

?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 vary slightly depending on their size, but the overall volume (approximately 1g per leaf) remains the same as before.

?We take great care in preparing our leaves, including removing thorns, eliminating parasite eggs, and shipping daily regardless of weather conditions during the season. We pride ourselves on the meticulous care we put into growing our food plants, which is far beyond simply collecting leaves from unknown locations or roadsides. We believe that feeding larvae with unknown origins is the most dangerous approach.

?As the rainy season ends, you may find leaves with slight blackening on the underside, minor tears, or curled edges. These are natural occurrences, and we have observed eggs and larvae feeding on such leaves in their natural habitat. Furthermore, thousands of larvae have successfully emerged each year after feeding on our imperfect leaves.

?We strive to ensure a stable supply of food plants from April to the end of November each year. Therefore, we offer all available food plants unless there are exceptional circumstances, as we cannot afford to waste even a single branch.

?We ensure adequate hydration and moisture retention before handing packages directly to the Yamato Transport service center for their final 7:00 PM pickup. This avoids the unnecessary delays associated with shipping from convenience stores or post offices, ensuring faster delivery. For nearby locations, packages are transported overnight and can be delivered to your mailbox by morning. Like leafy vegetables, storing the leaves in the vegetable crisper of your refrigerator will extend their freshness.

?For regions where delivery typically takes two days (Okinawa, Kyushu, Shikoku, Hokkaido, and the far ends of Honshu), delivery may take longer.
