You can try. Most stories I've heard about such attempts usually end up with crushed and ripped up plants. But I've heard a little success as well. I think if you use hardy plants that can bounce back easily from being pushed over and smooshed, you might be able to pull it off.

I've read in many places basically what JLC said: BPs have a tendency to squash or rip up plants, just exploring their cage. I think it's because they are just thicker than corn snakes, more weight per inch of snake.

Any plants grown outdoors and in greenhouses are likely to carry insects, fungi, bacteria etc. into your setup when you add them
