Hi yes you can add weeds, you can buy weed seeds and grow your own in the enclosure, go to
http://www.tlady.clara.net/herbiseed.htm they sell a tortoise mix of weed seeds. I also transplanted some from different parts of my garden (make sure no pesticide or weedkiller been used near them) into the enclosure. You can also buy/grow other edible plants like hosta's, petunia's, sedum, hibiscus, campanula the list is endless!!!! Here is a pic of my outdoor enclosure taken in the spring not much growing, its full now tho!!! Vivienne |
