Plants for snakes, tropical and desert

In this collection you will find a variety of different plants that are suitable for snakes found in tropical and desert habitats. These plants are beneficial as their complex root systems will help retain the tunnels and burrows your snakes create. These plants can also stand the weight of heavier snakes and being uprooted and replanted again by the keeper. These plants always go through the Dude's crush test. 

It is recommended to thoroughly wash all plants prior to introducing into your terrarium. Not sure if the plant below works for your habitat? Reach out to us at customercare@thebiodude.com or call 717 305 0684 for assistance.

Live Plants - The Bio Dude cannot ship plants to California due to restrictions. When shipping plants, The Bio Dude takes special care to wrap each plant individually using paper towels or butcher paper. Additionally, plants are always packaged in a separate box from other products. However, it is crucial to be aware that The Bio Dude cannot guarantee live delivery of plants if the temperatures, either at your location or at The Bio Dude's facility, are below 40 or above 95 degrees Fahrenheit.
