Live plants for BD's?

[haze2cute]

I am wanting to revamp my beardie enclosure next weekend and was thinking about some live plants as well as fake, does anyone know any that i can use? preferably ones that dnt need too much looking after.

Thanks

Cactuses are the only live plants I've seen in BD vivariums. I'm interested in other options cos I'd like more in my viv than rocks and a branch!

Just go to your local garden centre and see what plant can with stand the temp in the tank!! As long as there watered they should be alright! And provides fresh oxygen for the BD nd looks smart!

whatever you put in will more than likely get eaten, shit on or trampled on.

True!!!

I was thinking about this myself the other day actually.

Cactus' would look awesome but i cant imagine them being very safe for the beardie which is a shame.

Can anyone actually give me any plant names that they use themselves?

i have read that cactuses are ok but im not overly sure about it...

Thanks for the replies

Cacti are fine, they wont get eaten, if you use the less prickly varieties theyre pretty safe and they do well in the hot, dry conditions of a beardy viv. Beardies love to eat some kinds of flowers too, I used to have a hibiscus plant in my viv for a bit, didnt last long though, my beardy ate all of the flowers and a lot of the leaves within a week or two!

thanks was thinking cacti would look good but obviously dnt want them is they will hard my beardies, thing is every website u look on says something different, some say they r ok others say they are not.

Beardies come from Australia. Cacti do not. Worth bearing in mind...
