Fittonia is an Angel Exotica which comes in green and white, pink and white and all shades of red and white. It loves the humidity.

I have found that you have to be careful with standard avs to be sure they are not a large one. Sometimes even the minis or semi miniature are better for terrariums.

Episcias are wonderful........but you have to be careful with the greens in them depending on what you have in your terrarium already.

Here are a couple of pics of ideas......let me also find some more. This just happens to be Summer Dreams but Lin mentioned Cleopatra and there are Hidden Valley and many other lighter shades.
