Okay. I caught Penelope munching on the leaves of this plant a couple of times this past week. As I mentioned, she has become voracious lately and eating things she never did before. They began to grow near our pots of tomatoes and other edible plants--no flowers just yet but when they get enough water, flowers will come out. I am familiar with this common weed as Japanese actually treasure it and writes poems about it...also uses them for tea ceremony because
of it's subtle beauty.
Nevertheless, my gut feeling says that it isn't good for tortoise.
Can someone tell me if it's safe for desert tortoise to eat these, or do I need to yank them out?
