Hey! I use a hanging pothos plant, but I also used to have a little fiscus tree in the cage... it was too crowded, but it's good for having lots of climbing branches :D

Here's a couple of sites with non-toxic plant info:

http://www.bmts.com/~csz/MingsExoticZoo/Mingsnontoxicplants.html <--- This one isn't specifically for chameleons, but if you find a plant you like, you can check it up on here! :D

My cham loves to eat the pothos plant! MmMmmMm... I can only imagine how yummy it is.. :\

In Canada? I got my hanging Pothos plant from Rona, which has a very nice greenhouse section year round!, for I THINK about 8 dollars... But it was sort of out of season, and they were trying to get rid of them, so when they have more of them the prices might go up, but you could get a really nice one for 15 bucks. My little fiscus tree cost 10 bucks... But make sure they're strong enough for your cham, lol if I put my cham on my fiscus tree now, it'd flop him right to the ground!!

Pothos plants grow like NUTS.... I'm kind of a biased plant keeper... the fiscus didn't end up helping me and my cham so I don't pay any attention to it LOL.... but yea the pothos plants are strong, hardy, and just keep growing... !!

LOL Thanks, I'll be sure I do as such!!! *Goes to join*
