Yeah,
That would be great, I think the Violet is a little high for her to reach, but I am sure she will enjoy the flowers that fall off of it. What is a good prolific plant to put inside the enclosure though?

Thanks,
Troy

: : 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,
