Plants inside the enclosure

[Marcus Harrison]

Hello everyone,

I am thinking of buying a couple of plants to place along the wall of my Russian's enclosure that she can eat and are fairly easy to grow.

Any suggestions? How big will the plants you suggest grow? I don't have a massive amount of space.

Thanks

Good idea. Except anything you buy will have been fertilized and should be transplanted into fertilizer and pesticide free dirt and left to grow and sit for about 3 months before feeding only new growth. If you have an organic nursery or can collect weed plants from chemical free grounds, that the better choice.

I use spider plants.
They're not hugely popular as a foodstuff with mine and if nibbled won't do any harm.

The plan is to grow them anyway, from a seed so shouldn't be a problem, any plant suggestions?
