The Live Oak leaf litter that Glass Box Tropicals offers is comprised of only the best leaves. They are harvested from areas that are free from pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. The majority of the leaves that you will receive are dry, brown, and very few are broken or in pieces. Live Oak leaves are a great, long lasting leaf in a terrarium or vivarium, even under high humidity conditions. Live Oak leaves are much smaller than Magnolia and Sea Grape, ranging in size from 2-4" long and typically 2" or less in width, making them easier to fit into smaller areas and around delicate plants.

Leaf litter not only helps to provide a natural appearance, but the leaves also offer hiding spots for animals such as dart frogs. Additionally, as leaves decompose, microfauna such as springtails and isopods will use them as food. In the natural habitat of dart frogs and various gecko species, the leaf litter is often several inches thick with varying sizes, shapes and thicknesses of leaves. Glass Box Tropicals recommends having the leaf litter at least a few layers deep, with different types of leaves mixed together. It is also recommended to routinely add leaves as you see them decomposing.

Leaves are offered in 1 gallon quantities.
