{"product_id":"exo-terra-forest-plant-ruscus","title":"Exo Terra Forest Plant Ruscus","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Ruscus is one of four hanging plants in the Exo Terra Forest Plant range — an artificial rainforest plant that mounts against the glass or hangs from the top of the terrarium, putting cover at the height an arboreal species uses instead of on the floor. It is the lightest of the four in the sizes we stock, which makes it the easy one to add to an already busy build. As with every replica, be clear on what you are giving up: no transpiration, so no contribution to humidity, no oxygen, and no growing in over time. In return it holds up to misting, climbing and direct light indefinitely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo sizes here, Small and Medium; Exo Terra also catalogues a Large we do not stock.
