What plants are non-toxic I can put in with my gecko?

the temp in my gecko's tank ranges from 70F-85F





what plant can survive in that heat and is non toxic to the gecko but common enough to buy in a place that sells plants/flowers?
Say
FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy Flowersi also reccommend pothos, and peaceliles....in my terrarium i use parlor palms, and dry mosses
Reply:I've always used the ones called "pothos" or the "shefflera" They can even live in water with very little nutrition and stand botha cold and hot temps. They're not toxic. My veiled chameleon, bearded dragons and my iguanas have eaten them by chance (let me make clear they are not part of their diets) and nothing has happened yet. You can also find them referred to as non toxic in several pages on the web

this site gives some ideas of live plants and mosses.
Reply:Geckos like humidity and peace-lily’s love water, and are not toxic. Have you considered using a peace lily? They are very common and very inexpensive. Some of the ones with flowers can get pricy the most I spent for one was $16.00; however, some are as little as $5.00. You can get them at Home Depot.nanny
