Shade plant?

[krh11b23]

What's a good shade plant to use in an outdoor enclosure that my tort can also eat

Hosta is a good one here in Virginia, not sure where you are located but they do well in many places.

You could always add a dwarf mulberry tree...they top out at about 8 feet and hang low enough for your sully to munch on...without damaging the tree!

Hibuscus tree! They love those things...

When you say "shade plant," do you mean one that PROVIDES shade, or one that GROWS in shade?

I dunno, we've had a lot of success with fig trees from them, never any issues. Another tree vendor ive used for grape vines is Isons. I have about 10 gorgeous vines growing this year that i received and planted last Spring. My Sully loves the new baby grape leaves, picked fresh each day.

I'm referring to mulberries...they are no good for sulcatas! Grape leaves are great...but you can get them anywhere!

Is it a problem is my tort has a fruiting mulberry in his enclosure?
