Does anyone feed flowers to their Uro and do you grow them inside?

I did all summer - pansies, dandelions, cat's claws, and nasturtiums. I will have an outdoor lizard garden next year, but don't have a good house for growing flowers. Way too dark. You can buy edible flowers at natural food stores in the summer, too, but it's WAY cheaper to grow your own.

I would love to have a lizard garden outside but I live on the 7th floor in an apartment complex. I'll check out some health food stores for flowers. Thank you Torey.

I live in an apartment on the 18th floor and grow flowers on my balcony outside. Since the winter season has finally come (and the snow as well), I am currently growing dandelions indoors from the pesticide- and herbicide-free seeds I harvested in late summer to early autumn. I already have seedlings (the seeds took about 3 days to sprout). Since they are weeds, they grow very easily. I would recommend dandelions for anyone living in apartments since they are very easy to grow and care for. I know Ra will be very happy to have dandelion blooms once again.

Hope this helps

Do you use any artificial light or just stick them in a window?
