Could anyone please send me a list of all safe plants and flowers that is safe for my squirrel to eat? I figure instead of finding wild plants and flowers and trying to identify the correct name of what ever it is, I can just go to a nursery or Lowe’s and buy wild flowers and plants and atleast know the correct name to know it’s safe.

Also, when planting my own garden, plants and flowers, do I need to use organic potting soil (I will be using flower pots instead of planting into ground because my dirt around my house is like clay and nothing grows good at all!!
Was t sure since squirrel want me able to get to the plants since they will be outside, if I could use regular potting soil or need organic?

Thank you so much.
Also, I can use miracle grow on these correct? Would I need to wait any certain amount of time before I give them to her to eat?

I would like names of all flower, would or store bought, plants, wild fruit tree, etc.

Thank you so much

some plants i use are. hibiscus, roses, crepe mytle trees, pursalane plant. cactus pears, thornless cactus pads, fresh rose hips, dandelions, i would only use organic soil not miracle grow. I add epsom salt to the soil occasionally. Hope these ideas help.
