06-05-2007 by sharon quinn	I want to grow some plants for tortoises to eat. Can anybody tell me if I can just grow any varieties off the shelf. ie pansy, nastersuim, petunia.
04-06-2007 by Jessica Dring	Have you checked if these are ok for tortoises to eat? I would stick to the ever popular dandelion leaves and fruit/veg for them. Also the leaves would have to have alot of nutritional value to be worth growing for the tortoises. Hope this helps
