Hermann’s food!?

[Eligperales]

My Hermann’s is about 3 months and it’s difficult to get them food when I live in the desert! I give them hollyhock flower but they are out of season now, I’m growing dandelion, cucumbers and some grass but that’s going to be a while. I am able to get organic Dandelion leaves from my locals farmers market but it’s getting a bit repetitive for them it seems. Any advice? What’s the best food to provide them. Thank you!!

Hermanni are not grass eaters, but chopped grass can be used to add fiber to grocery store greens.
