My enclosure currently has ~20 live plants--mostly succulents, but I avoided any cacti because of the thorns. I have 3 air plants (
Tillandsia) of different colors. Without knowing the specific species of yours, I hesitate to say for sure if they're safe, and I'd still look it up as I do with every plant I add.
Aloe Vera can be a
Con-Sub. While technically not poisonous, it can cause digestive problems (diarrhea) if consumed in quantity, yet some beardies seem to love it. Other
Aloe species (there are over 500) I would check individually.
There are
many lists of
beardie-safe plants. (
Lithops are one I particularly like.) Once you establish your own list, be prepared that your beardie may nibble, eat, stomp on, dig up, or otherwise destroy any live plants. IOW, Be prepared and have extras on-hand. :wink:
Ceramic pots should be fine--even (yuck :bleick: ) plastic, if necessary. I found some cool natural-looking "lava rock" planters at a local garden store, and built a few others out of slate tiles.
ZaRDoZ has tasted and nibbled on every plant I've put in there (except the
Tillandsia, because it's up on the back wall out of reach, and the
Lithops) but so far, he hasn't dug any up--he just likes to climb/stomp on them. However I've also included some herbs (Basil, Oregano) that he's welcome to.
