Hey, you brilliant plant people, you! Ginger's been eating this plant outside. She loves it. It's helped her with her constipation when nothing else has! What do you guys think? Is it okay for her to eat? It's a teensy bit prickly but nothing that would hurt her.plantid 001.JPG plantid 002.JPG plantid 003.JPG

Can anyone identify these plants and are they safe to feed my Marginated tortoise

Nice mixed bag of plants, including hydrangea, and Grape Hyacinth. I wouldnt feed either of those. The bottom one looks like a kind of plantain, broadleaf weed, not sure of the name. Thst one is probably ok, but I'd wait for a firm ID.

The plant in the first three photos--the one with purple/pink flowers-- is a dead nettle; safe for tortoises.

The first picture looks like aegopodium podagraria, I think it's called bishopsweed.
