Absolutely. They live in eucalypts in Australia. Give it a really good wash first. (Wild birds and other animals have been in them.) I used to wash them in plain white vinegar, but i've got some animal safe wash called F10SC that I spray on diluted after I've hosed the branches down.

You can make perches out of the larger branches, and they'll nibble on the fresh leaves, or wash in them sometimes if they are fresh and wet. The leaves stay fresh for around a week or two.
