I have a very annoying Mulberry Tree in a neighbours yard that I often "prune". I have given the branches to my birds and they love it. I have not given the mulberries, as I usually prune it when it is nto in season, but I am not aware that they would be a problem.

Does anyone know if Peace Lily is okay? I have one on the table next 2 Peanut's cage, & notice he's nibbled a few leaves- he seems fine, & as this is the only green stuff (other than seed grass) that i've seen him eat, i don't want 2 discourage him!
