Just wondering if anyone has live plants in their enclosure and if so, what plant?

I am thinking about planting some Nasturtium seeds or even some endive. What do you think?

Cheers

Jane

when using live plants in a VIV you have to becareful of 3 things:

1) The soil, can't have any plant food, fertalizer or additives (remeber if it is in the VIV the BD will probably want to taste it.)
2) The plant HAS to BD safe, there are plants/flowers out there that are now safe for dragons
3) you really have to watch your humidity, wet soil will definatley raise the humidity in the VIV.

Some things to think about, hope this helps.
