    Default Plants!

    Ok so iv had a look at the list of plants and have to say I can only find a few in shops and im not that keen on them. Does anyone if the Jasmine plant on the list includes Scented Jasmine? We have those at work and they are relatively cheap.

    Also can Twisted Hazel be put into the vivs? We have hose in work too and they look like little climbing frames that would be ideal for the chams although they have no foliage on them at the minute.

    Can anyone recommend some good plants that won't be too over baring for the viv?

    I've used a simple ivy in mine, it vines out nicely and the leaves are great for hiding and collection water to drink from.

    Im not sure about the plants you asked about, sorry

    I would have thought most house plants are ok as Pygmy's arent veg grazers, dont quote me on that, someone will pop up with some helpful info

    Have you looked at small ficus plants? and Pathos? They are in B'n'Q plus almost all other garden type centers

    no not seen any yet, havnt been able to find the ficus or the pathos yet!
    the twisted hazle i saw would be great for cham grazing, not practical on the shading tho so no where for them to hide!

    Go for it, if you can get it cheap at work then twist some ivy round it for a little cover

    I'm sure you could make it work

    Hello.

    That's strange that you can't find some ficus in garden's shops...
    I am in Paris and it's pretty easy to find.

    regarding plants, any plants with little leaf will be good.
    (preferably tropical one, if you want them to live long in your vivarium, which is 25 ° C all year)

    also put a max of twigs you can easily find in the forest.
    is good for chameleons can wander around without having to get off the ground.

    have a good day
