Question about bushes for an enclosure

[fishera79]

I am going to be adopting two boy Sulcatas and would like to put some bushes in, prefer evergreen but any will work if I can't find evergreen for the enclosure. It is 50ft x 50ft. I just want some suggestions on non-toxic plants. I would like something to provide some shade, a well growing desert loving bush. I am illiterate when it comes to plants. Can grow mulberry trees great though. I would like some feed back I don't trust google for answers. I want to know from people on this forum who actually have bushes in their backyards or are knowledgable about them. Thanks in advance for your help.

You want Bushes that will provide shade, as well as food they can eat!
Hibisicis plants work great, spider plants, rose bushes, rose of sharon.

Fishera,

There are some wonderful threads on the forum dedicated entirely to edible landscaping. I keeps printout in my purse for quick reference everytime I go to Lowe's. Honeysuckle and Boston ferns are a big hit with my girls. Make sure whatever you buy has not been treated with chemical growth engenders or fertilizers.

Ok great!! I'll have to print off the list.
