Sea Grape Leaves are the largest type of leaf litter we sell at Josh's Frogs! Great as a sole leaf litter, sea grape leaves look even better when mixed with either live oak leaves or magnolia leaves in a naturalistic vivarium.
Sea grape leaves break down over a longer period of time than some other types of leaf litter, and seem to lead to an increased abundance of isopods and springtails when used in a naturalistic vivarium. Sea grape leaves are fairly large, and provide a lot of hiding spots and visual barriers in your vivarium. The size of these leaves also make for a great decorative accent in larger terrariums!
Please be aware that since these are natural products, there will be size, shape, and color variance.
Leaf litter performs a very important role in a naturalistic vivarium. It provides shelter, visual barriers, and hiding places for the vivarium inhabitants, such as poison dart frogs. Mimicking the role of dead plant matter in the rainforest, leaf litter also puts nutrients back into the environment, providing the stuff plants and microfauna need to thrive! Josh's Frogs leaf litter is collected from a pesticide and herbicide free environment.
Although our leaves are collected in a pesticide and herbicide free environment, many choose to further treat vivarium decor. Leaves can be baked to a temperature of 140°F, eliminating potential harmful organisms.
