I could find Kalanchoe in my neighborhood and could feed the caterpillars on it. All 44 of them are healthy and about to pupate :) Also to my surprise, I found caterpillars on my Asclepias curassavica (haldi-kumkum) plant. I've looked up online, but I am confused if these are of blue tiger or plain tiger. I'll be glad if someone could identify them. If someone in Bangalore wants to start rearing caterpillars, I could share some caterpillars/pupas. :) Thanks again, Anupreet.

To my surprise, in just about a month, I've collected more than 35 caterpillars. I'm really happy to see so many of them, but at the same time I'm sad because my plant doesn't have enough leaves for them. I've started propagating more saplings, but the leaves are still too tiny and not enough at all. I am urgently looking out for Bryophyllum leaves, sapling, plant.. whatever's available. I've checked out a lot of nurseries, including Lalbaugh, but in vain. I reside at Indira Nagar, but can come down to pick up the plant from anywhere in Bangalore. It'll be great if you could get me some leaves/ or recommend a place where the plant/leaves are available! Please call me up if you have this plant with you! Thanks a ton!
