I will soon be designing a 5000 sq foot enclosure for my 5 sulcatas and wanted to check if the following plants would be ok or considered toxic for them. I will also take percautions to make sure that the tortoises cant eat them to oblivion in addition to providing them a large grassy area. Please give me your input.

Rasperries
Blackberries
Blueberries
Aronia
White Mulberry
Grapes
White/Red/Black Currant
Elderberries
Sea Berry
Fig Trees
Roses (whole plants)
Apricot Tree
Pear Tree
Day Lilly
Ferns
Walnut Trees
Oak Trees
Maple Trees
Geraniums Perrenial
Hibiscus Perrenial
Birch Trees
Willows
Locust
Periwinkle
Cranberries
Rose of Sharron Trees

I know theres a lot of berries in there, but I want to be able to harvest them for myself too, lol. Let me know what you think.
Also, if anyone can instruct me how to post photos, I would like to share some past enclosure pics.

Thanks A Lot!

Most of those plants are great choices, it will provide a lot of food if your tortoise isn't a real big one which destroys plants. The walnut trees are problematical, they have alelopathic (sp?) tendencies, they inhibit other plants from growing with natural chemicals, limiting the plants that will grow under them. Periwinkle can be horribly invasive, and is viny, I wouldn't use it if you have the option of getting rid of it. I haven't looked them all up for toxicity, but I am suspicious about periwinkle. Sounds like a fun project. Rose of Sharon flowers are a real favorite of reptile herbivores. If your climate allows, you might want to plant some spineless prickly pear "nopales" cacti, protect them at first or they will be relentlessly over-browsed. Good luck, Vic
