I will bet real plants are good for the humidity level.
I would say steer clear of anything that flowers. With the humidity so high and not a whole lot of circulation in tanks, I can't see the pollen being good for him. But there are many beautiful foliage type of plants that work well.

This list is huge! You really need only to be concerned about ones that have toxic flowers, or sap. Luckily the pet we're dealing with doesn't chew EVERYTHING.

As long as your snake doesn't eat his greens from your plants, I would be confident to say if the poison is within the stems/leaves (and not the sap) you're a-ok.
