Yes it is, and torts love it. I got the first flowers on mine today, but there were only two so I had to decide which two torts could have them!

hehe, this makes me laugh as most of those plants are edible for humans aswell. Have any of you seen Ray Mear's "wild food"? I have the book, I am sure it would be a valuable resource for you; I presume that what is non toxic to use is non toxic to reptiles. I might be able to suggest a few more plants if you want.
