I was at Home Depot today and impulsively bought a few Pansy plants for Sheldon. I know that they are safe for torts, but my questions are: should I be concerned that these plants were treated with pesticides from Home Depot here in Colorado? (It didn't say anything about pesticides, of course, I forgot to ask, and we don't really have bug problems in Colorado because it's too cold for them for nine months out of the year, so I don't know how widespread the use might be here as compared to somewhere where pests are a big problem, like Florida.)
My second question is, are only the leaves and flowers safe, or is the rest of the plant, safe? I wanted to just plant the plants directly in Sheldon's enclosure and see what he does this first go around. (He stops eating when he's not hungry, so I don't think I would have an overfeeding issue, and I'm fine if he tears up/destroys the plants.)
Thanks.
