New plant

[Erin Z]

hello everyone so i ordered a ficus from a local flower shop and I got a new enclosure for my veil med chameleon. I was wondering if and how I should clean the ficus so she doesn't get sick. Thank you all

Rinse the plant and leaves thoroughly to remove any pesticides. Replace the top 2 inches or all of the soil with an organic potting soil. Cover the soil with rocks lager than your chameleons head or screen to keep him from eating any.

On a side note: Make sure the Ficus does not get too much water, they like to dry out between watering. If you overwater it will drop leaves.
