# I recently got this Cretan brake fern from a rescue box! I’m inspired…

_Posted by Plant daddy on 2023-09-13_

I recently got this Cretan brake fern from a rescue box! I’m inspired to create a terrarium for it (since the invention of the terrarium was what first enabled species of ferns to be transported overseas by botanists).  
Has anyone created one for their ferns before?  
Any suggestions for what to put in with it? (Other plants, decorative elements etc)  
Any suggestions of where to buy interesting terrarium containers? (I’m going to go with something geometric rather than a jar or bottle I think)
