(1) Create a Drainage Layer: You need to create a drainage Layer for your plants. If the plant's roots are left in standing water, then the roots may rot causing you problems. You can avoid this by using a layer of pea gravel or lava rock to create a drainage area for your plants. My drainage layer is between 1" to 1.5" deep. (2) Non-Toxic Substrate: The quality of the substrate you grow your plants in is very important! You do NOT want to get ordinary potting soil. Potting soil is filled with fertilizers and other additives that is great for plants, but can be harmful and sometimes fatal to your herp. I know a zoo keeper who uses "Edna's Best Potting Soil" to create vivariums for the zoo's herps. It can be difficult finding a retailer that sells it so please visit their website and type in your zip code to find a store near you that will carry their soil. Their website is http://www.ebstone.org/13_ednas.php. (3) Planting your Plants Do not simply stick your potted plant in the soil of your terrarium. Please remove the plant from your pot, and gently pull away as much soil as you can from the roots. Then rinse away the dirt from the roots in room temperature water. I prefer to treat my water by putting a few drops of de-chlorinator. If you don't have this, you can leave your water out in a sterile, non-metallic open container for about 24 hours. This will allow the chlorine and the fluoride to evaporate. (4) Fertilizer Do NOT use synthetic fertilizers! It can be fatal to your herp. If you're plant is in serious need of a pick me up, I would suggest using an organic fertilizer. (5) Don't ever use pesticides on your plants. (6) Maintenance I think this is the best part. You can shape your landscape by religiously trimming and training your plants. These geckos are nocturnal so I never see them during the day. I was sick of looking at what appeared to be an empty sad little terrarium so I created a vivarium that was aesthetically pleasing to the eye during the day, but still a great home for the geckos. I hope this helps! Here is a link that might be useful: The Apartment Garden

Very limited options, IMO. Your intended setup sounds ... dark. I could easily be wrong but I suspect you are going to HAVE to provide more lighting than a UV bulb even just for the lizards's sake. How big a tank are you doing? Medium to high humidity will require a fan be included for air circulation. Stagnant, moist air is a recipe for fungus issues ... including ones that could be detrimental to your anoles. What do you consider "low maintainence"? Ferns might work as might pothos though both will likely need more than the UV bulb to remain healthy.

The Southwestern Center for Herpetological Research cordially invites you (and your friends, family, and coworkers!) to participate in the 2015 Reptile and Amphibian Public Opinion Survey. This survey is designed to gauge the perspectives of not only reptile and amphibian enthusiasts, but those who are “not as fond” of these animals as well. It is GLOBAL in scope and ALL AGES are encouraged to participate. All opinions are important to record! The survey should take less than 30 minutes and can be found (along with the report from our 2013 Herper Survey) on SWCHR’s web site at http://southwesternherp.com/survey.html. The report on the results from the current survey will also be made available to you when it is complete. The survey will be open for participation through November 30th, so please share this invitation with everyone you know to help us paint a better picture of current popular attitudes toward reptiles and amphibians!

(Orginal answer - retracted: Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis). They can be brown colored when they are cool.) Actually, I take that back. Looking at its tail I can see a distinctive pattern. This is a young Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei), not a Green Anole.
