Uncommon safe and unsafe plants

[Nixibabie]

I want everyone who has ever had a plant that is not already on the known to be safe list that was eaten by a cham and they were fine to post the species of plants in the comments. Also if any uncommon plants have killed your chameleon.

There aren’t any I know of but read through this thread it’s pretty much talking about the same thing

I have two wax left ligustrums (AKA Texas privet)growing like crazy under 70watt LED. As far as I know they aren’t on any list. They have a lot of leaves and branches for climbing. They’re the main plant in the enclosure along with two small pothos ivies.

Croton plants are a popular one for people to assume is toxic but has actually safely been eaten by veileds.

No issues with the ligustrums? No problems with the leaves irritating your cham’s skin? Can I assume you keep a panther chameleon?

I went to Home Depot yesterday in search of large plants and was not impressed with what I saw. Very frustrating. I did find several tall and pretty well started wax ligustrums - I went ahead and grabbed one for the patio. It‘s a pretty nice shrub.. it has very sturdy branches and thick leaves. If it’s panther safe, I think it might just end up as a main plant in my enclosure.

(sorry to butt in, by the way! Had to ask as I just picked up a wax ligustrum myself)

Depends also if it’s for a Veiled or other chameleons. I wouldn‘t take a too big risk with Veiled‘s.

This is one I pretty much like https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/madagascar-jasmin-the-perfect-living-vine.181527/
