    Default Plants for vivarium

    Can any of these plants be planted in a vivarium?

    -Chamaedorea
    -Hypocerta
    -Radarmachera sinica
    -Adiantium "maidenhair"
    -Schefflera arboricola
    -Hedera "green ivy"
    -Dieffenbachia

    They are all house plants that I saw at my local home improvement store. It would be nice to not have to order plants online but I have no idea if these would be safe for the frogs, or if they would thrive in a vivarium.

    Thanks!

    Diefenbachia is fine. I'm not familiar with the rest I'm afraid. You should be able to get Pothos, Wandering Jew, and various Philodendrons locally too. Also, many Begonia species are terrarium friendly, as are Hoya.

    Thank you! I googled the Hoya and it looks nice; I hope I can find some!

    I also really like philodendrons but there weren't any there, but I will check a bigger store.
