Like a small one? Or medium to large? Bioactive?

it’s like a medium glass jar, about 4.5 inches wide :)

Cool. So depending on how tall. Solanum uleanum are cool. They just can grow a bit tall of its a squat jar. They're like a purpley dark green

Solanum evolvulifolium are much shorter than S.uleanum. and they have cool patterns.

It's nice you really only need a cutting, not a full plant. So if you can find someone local that has a terrarium compatible plant, you could just ask for a cutting. Sometimes local nurseries will sell cuttings too. Or the little 2" fairy pots for only a few bucks

Have you ever watched Terrarium Designs outta the UK? He has some really good youtubes. Especially on begginer builds. This one's titled Bigger Terrarium
