I was wondering if Autumn Olive flowers and leaves are safe for Russian Tortoises to eat? I cant find any information about it? Any help is greatly appreciated!

There are some lists of edible plants for Russian tortoises if you search online. Here is one: http://russiantortoise.net/edible_plants.htm

If you can't find any information confirming that a plant leaf or flower is safe for your tortoise, I would assume it is not safe to feed it to them. There are some plants which only certain portions should be consumed by the tortoise, and there are some with poisonous look-alikes. Always better safe than sorry.
