NON-TOXIC PLANTS


The following is a list of some non-toxic, safe plants.
REMEMBER - any plant can cause harm if ingested in large amounts!

DISCLAIMER:   The plants on this list are considered 'safe' by accredited sources.  Please bear in mind that not all plants are safe for all birds under all circumstances.   Houseplants and ornamentals are not routinely tested on birds, so there is no way of accurately evaluating the safety of each plant with pet birds.  Also, plants may have been treated with fertilizers or pesticides before they came into your home.  Soil can harbor mold, mildew, bacteria and insects.  Be safe and keep all houseplants out of reach of your pet birds!  For further information, contact your local poison control center, university Cooperative Extension Service, botanical gardens and your avian veterinarian.
