If your still considering using real plants you should look for the one that come in pots so your snake dont crush them, or some hardie ones like photos

Pothos is a great one to put in there, although you do have to make sure that you leave it in its pot and in such a way that its not killed by your snake. I have pothos in my ball cages and have not had any problems keeping them alive. They are virulent weeds where they come from and very hardy plants.

Maybe a potted plant, I had sick cage for my boa once. I got organic soil, treated it for any kind of bugs, picked a few plants that would do good in artifical light. I even planted real grass in it. It looked awsome. The grass filled out, the plants where brite and growing, everything was a real eye catcher. Then the snake got hungry. He flattened and killed almost everything roaming the cage. After I fed him, he settled back down, I got to work on my stuff again and it lasted great for a week and a half. Then, you guessed it, he got hungry. I took it all out, it wasn't worth the money or hassle.
