: Hey,
: I followed the list on Turtle Cafe and I bought a Violet Plant and a DayLilly. But before I put them in I want to make sure those are safe. It's just a normal Violet and the DayLilly is same scientific namea s featured on your list.
: Please tell me if anyone has any experienbce using these two plants in enclosures, or just tell me what people do use? I have a Russian.

Hi Troy,
Both are fine as long as the Lilly isnt a Tiger or Easter. On the Violet, I couldnt find that on my own list (too long :) but as long as its not an African, it should be fine.
I do have concerns about purchasing nursery plants and putting them directly into the enclosure because they are soooo heavy chemicaly sprayed so many times over.
Neither are real prolific and so chances are if you put them in there right away with a Russian, they wont last long.
You did just give me the idea on putting a little star beside things that are prolific tho.
Take care,
tcc :)

: Thanks,
