Yeah theres a real lack of good fake plants,reptile one plants are ****,£6 to £9 each and look like something a 4 year old made.
Still think the best stick on plants,are the exo terra ones. |

Most of the standing up plants,we can buy here look like crap and are overpriced :) |

Ah, those are actually the tops of corn on the cob plants - they look pretty cool for artificial ones but at that price ...
Yes, that's the only trouble with dried grass - I still think wheat might be more durable but anything flimsy, or anything like barley or oats or grass that has those whiskery seeds would be a real no-no as the whiskers, known as 'awns' can hook into animal (or reptile) anatomy. Dried corn on the cobs could look really good though ...corn snakes' backsides permitting lol. |

Have you tried florists etc - I believe you can get dried corncobs for flower arranging etc. It's too late now, but next autumn, if in some countryside, you could just pick yourself a bunch of wheat (not sure if you meant American corn or English)when the farmer's not looking, hang it upside down for a week or so and then, voila, dried corn! (The little vandal will stll crap on it but at least it'll have been free.
I tried that :P they get crushed and fall to bits,and make a mess everyhwere :P something like this.
