Approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the pit should be submerged. It is time to pot the pit when many roots are present. The avocado and pineapple plants require full sunlight and are suitable plants to include in a tropical terrarium.

The aforementioned plants represent only a sample of the live plants that might be successfully maintained in a tropical habitat. The possibility of failure or success in an attempt to establish a well-balanced environment for lizards and live plants is probably determined by many factors. The individual who has the aid of a “green thumb” will most likely be a step ahead of the game.

Certain species of plants are poisonous and should not be included in a terrarium that houses lizards. Senecio macroglossus, an ivy-like tropical plant, is a poisonous species. Likewise, Philodendron is a toxic plant. Certain plants require specific care. The tropical zebra arrowroot, Calathea, although suitable for the terrarium throughout most of the year, tends to prefer a slightly cooler temperature during the winter. Recommendations concerning plant fertilizers and pesticides, as well as a suitable day/night schedule and the provision of a shaded area within the tropical terrarium, parallel the suggestions given for temperate/subtropical habitats.

From a romantic point of view, a rain-forest habitat simulated within the confines of a terrarium seems to be the most beneficial environment that can be provided for tropical lizards. This type of environment also offers the most appealing approach to the keeper. In practice, however, the scenic beauty of even the best-designed terrarium maintained by the average amateur herpetologist might be demolished by the ever-increasing size and activity of the rapidly growing larger species of lizards. A walk-in greenhouse or similar structure is then necessary if the lizard is to be provided with a jungle-like environment.
