Large yard available for growing sulcata food. Unfortunately many of the plants I hope to put in the yard are 1) plants that are considered invasive or 2) I'm not even sure if it is toxic to the sulcata. For example :Sweet Broom. Lovely flowering bush with rapid growth. ampas Grass. Another lovely flowering plant that grows fast. They both are invasive plants. Do you know if they are edible for sulcata's?
It seems it would be better to find an alternative to invasive plants, but they grow so well for our tortoises' voracious appetite.
Please let me know what you grow to feed your large sulcata's. The fruitless mulberry trees are great ! Every sulcata owner should have one. Grape vines too for their leaves. Hibiscus leaves are ok but he does not seem to prefer them. The spineless cacti he loves, loves, loves. Yes, I have seen the lists of toxic and non toxics and the lists of weeds to feed but gosh darn it I'm a bit dim and find it quite overwhelming at times. Keep it simple.
