within the last few weeks i have stocked up on some new plants for my enclosures, which i am in the process of overhauling totally, and although i know some are ok, others i dont know anything about. any info that you guys and girls have would be appreciated, including care and best places to use them.

golden pothos - good overall plant, right?

crassula argentea aka jade - what type of viv would this be good in? similar to pothos?

at my work we carry all those plants and probably at one point I have tried all of them in a crested tank or bearded esp with the jade. the only problem I had was my gecko trampling them all the time and using the bathroom in them which eventually killed them all.

the first unidenified is chlorophytum comosum mandaianum(or spider plant is great in tropical tanks),the 2nd I belive is dracaena sanderiana or(sander's dracaena or ribbon plant should do well with lager more robust tropical geckos), the 3rd is maranta leuconeura kerchoveana or(prayer plant would also do well with bigger robust tropical geckos) hope this helps.
