Another plant thread...

Sorry to start another thread and not go right to the sticky, but I didn't see all of these on the database and was thinking my questions would get more attention if they were in their own thread. I'm in the planning stages for a free range green house a few years down the road, and the plants of course must be chameleon safe. They don't necessarily need to support their weight, but they do need to be non-toxic.

I am a Kent State University student and we have a beautiful greenhouse here on campus that is filled with a vast amount of plant life. There are even designated biotope rooms! Anyways, I've been crusin' around trying to see what catches my eye. I will be asking about more as I find them, which is another reason I would like my own thread. So far, here's what I'm wondering about:

-dieffenbachia
-rhoeo spathacea (tri color, if it makes a difference)
-peperomia obtusifolia
-jewel orchid (are any orchids toxic?)
-setcreasea purpurea (purple heart)
-codiaeum variegatum (croton gold)
 
As a dedicated orchid grower, I've never heard or known of any orchid to be toxic to anything.

...and that is where my limited knowledge ends. :p

Would really like to hear about the Diffenbachia though, they look like they'd make great terrarium plants.
