California Turtle and Tortoise Club
Poisonous Plant List
Many common plants are toxic and keepers must make sure that their herbivorous chelonians are kept away from them. A simple step to take to minimize the risks to your turtles and tortoises is to learn the names of all the plants in your home and yard so that you can prevent any untoward contact with poisonous plants. If you are unable to identify specific plants your local nursery may be able to identify them for you. Be sure to note the correct spellings of both the common and the botanical names, and keep a list of the names for future use. If you do take plants to your nursery for identification be sure to take a sufficient sample that represents the plant as a whole.
