Here is a list I made a month ago with a lot of plants that thrive in terrarium conditions.I do not know if they are toxic and such and didn`t even get concerned about that since I do not feed prey that eats the plants(and usually doesn`t have time to anyway :D).

Some of them I already got to test and they were perfectly fine.

I threw away most of them during an infestation of some plant mites ( yup, bad call but I was way too angry when all the T terrariums were infested).I use only artificial plants now but for those who get a bang on keeping live plants in their T enclosures here it goes :

Zamioculcas zamiifolia


Pothos


Sansevieria


philodendrons


bromelia


Ficus pumila


Scindapsus aureus


Chlorophytum comosum


tillandsies


Aspidistra elatior


Epipremnum


aglaonema commutatum


Codiaeum variegatum


dieffenbachia


crassula


chamaedorea elegans


Spathiphyllum


maranta


ficus elastica


Pittosporum


Peperomia


Hoya


Hope this helps someone as I want to give back something to the community.
Cheers!

dieffenbachia has poisoness flowers, they can drip juice from their pollen things, so maybe not great for the T.

I use Beaucarnia plants in my tanks (not sure if this is the correct english name)

Thanks for the list! When my slings grow up, I'd like to keep them with plants (assuming I can keep any plants alive... I sort of have a black thumb).
