Vivarium Plants - Orchids, Ficus, Begonia, More

I've put together a list here with some real nice plants for vivarium settings. Grow these in naturalistic setups with your roaches, isopods or other inverts! Some will also do well as houseplants.

Take a few of these together with an additional $7 to cover USPS Priority shipping. Any combination totaling $38 or more will ship free.

I can also consider trades for certain kinds of livestock. Here are a few things I am looking for...

  • Hissers - various
  • Blaberus craniifer
  • Isopods - probably anything I don't have already
  • Millipedes
  • Vonones ornata
Most of these plants will ship as small cuttings with at least three leaves. Bigger rhizome sections with more energy may only have two leaves attached. These pieces are big enough to start new plants. Most will root easily on moist sphagnum moss, although some of the vines root more readily in moist perlite.

Thanks for looking!
