Any budgie tree suggestions? (Foraging)

Hi, I was thinking of getting an indoor tree/plant that my budgie would be able to chew on and play in. Right now all she has is the money tree (which is small) and she has nearly destroyed it. I've been growing some millet seeds in my back yard but it'll take a while. Do you folks have any recommendations for indoor plants and trees for small sized birds (that is durable)?

Wandering Jew and bamboo are a must have here. The WJ is a little easier to break, but you can just take the broken bits, peel off the lower leaves and put them in water until they shoot off roots. They take super easy and bounce back from just about anything.

I just take the lid off a long Tupper-ware (recloseable plastic container) and put a mix of foods in it and the birdies go down there, and forage!

When they were free-flying, they used to like to look for seed on the floor, also. They greatly enjoy eating grass...
