Several years ago, I purchased an Italian Cream Cake from our local bakery. It was delicious and even better, it was in a clear plastic container. The cake did not last long in our household but I still have the container and more have been added. My liverworts like the container with 1/2 inch of potting soil and peat moss. I also have had the stray fern spore germinate and grow into a sporophyte. Like Ward, I was not using the container to propagate ferns, but contaminate spores, growing into fern gametophytes, are a welcome addition. It seems to lose less water than other clear plastic containers I have used and is tall, supporting the growth of the fern for quite a long time. I would assume this plastic container would also work for others fern spores/gametophytes too. My Wardian case is seen at right.
