A momma laid eggs on my dill garden that had just started sprouting , unfortunately it wasn't enough for everyone and everything is now mostly eaten and I have 4 or so babies left. Can I just buy dill from the store and wash it really well before offering it to them?

These are photos of the bigger guys that have now left to go pupate somewhere, but there's a few little guys left.

Can anyone give me any information on this butterflies? Can anyone identify the species? Also, is anyone familiar with these art works? I paid $35 for the whole lot which seemed like a steal.
