I had a swiss cheese plant(monstera deliciosa) growing in the cool end of my bosc enclosure. He never tried eating it or digging it up, but he did break it a few times. The beauty of cheese plants is that theyre hard as nails and repair themselves quite quickly

i think they are poisonous ,i work at a nursery can we never have any problems with pests on them , rabbits wont even eat them ,,so i would stay away from them imo, and ferns like it cool and moist, dappled shade ,the only fern which you could get away with is the boston fern (house plant fern) it will tolarate higher tempertaure , but still prefers moist and dappled light levels and i think it is poisnous as well,

the main problem your gonna have is temperature and somthing strong enough , too with stand a heavy bosc...

i will have a think about it
