The Tradescantia Family is an excellent choice for your enclosure! Not all members of this family are recommended to cohabitate with reptiles; but lucky for our customers we only carry Tradescantia that are recommended to place in a BioActive enclosure. This plant is a terrestrial vine that is native to Central and South America and is loved here at BioActive Supply for its gorgeous coloration and patterns!
In addition to being a gorgeous addition to your enclosure, the Tradescantia can also be grown easily as a house plant! We recommend planting your tradescantia houseplant in our BioActive All-Purpose Potting Soil!
