Right, basically I've got my hands on an empty Marmite Jar, tempted to just stick it in but quite interest in maybe growing something suitable out of the top?

Are there any major do's or don't for plants and Corns?

I actually use all manner of stuff in my Viv.
My next one is to grow a 'mile-a-minute', or the correct name of a Russian Vine.
These, like the name, are a vine that grows incredibly fast.
My plan is to check that any blossoms aren't toxic/poisonous to the snakes and grow that.
A live 'climbing frame' for my corns, they'll love it!!

Hey Matt,
Most Garden centres will have it.
have a look here, http://www.shoplocally.co.uk/localads.asp?catid=087060003
it's a list of centres near you that might have it.
Although it does grow INCREDIBLY fast, and as yet i don't know if it's safe for snakes.
It has small white blossoms, which will get into water bowls etc, so don't try it until you KNOW it's safe.
