Dwarf umbrella trees also know as umbrella plants are okay I just looked more today and yes they are fine here are some sites to prove. http://webspace.webring.com/people/sc/chameleoncreatures/nontoxicplants.html http://www.iguanaden.org/diet/nontoxic.htm And I found more.

LOL Don’t put live plants in with, use fake or nothing...they will claw it and shred it whilst climbing it....possibly eat it. Even if it is non toxic might not be so good for them to ingest. They have insecticides sprayed on them ...fertilizer liquid..and carry other creepy crawlies and gnats in the soil unless you transplant and bake the new soil. I am talking from a nursery or Big Box store.

#2274785 Tempestborn View Profile	Message To: Cphill58   In reference to Message Id: 2274767  Got something and need help. i am sufficiently mollified... the only live plants i trust in an iguana cage are grass and hibiscus. i grew a pan of grass from seed i ordered from turtle cafe for penelope, and it’s in the cage with her and sini now, but it never spent any time outside. i had a hibiscus in with elvis for a bit (i grew it indoors with store-bought soil, also), but it didn’t seem to thrive under his lights, so i took it back out. they get to run around in live plants when they spend their time outside (ON LEASHES). jesse
