Default Bell jar terrarium

I know that upon seeing the title all of the orchid fanatics start shouting "air circulation!" Just hear me out.

I just bought a Lepanthes telipogoniflora at an orchid show and sale. While there, I was checking out the Andy's Orchids booth, and someone - I think it was Andy - told me all the healthiest specimens he'd seen were grown in glass jars. Now, if Andy of Andy's Orchids tells me how to grow a miniature, I figure it is wise to listen.

I assured him I had a perfectly good terrarium, with fans and lights and all that, and he repeated that glass jar was the way to go. So, darn it, glass jar is what it will be.

My question is, what else can I grow in my glass jar with this telipogoniflora? I have a few pieces that came off of my Pleurothallis grobyi that I may stick in there with it, and I'm considering getting Barbosella dusenii.

I would like to hear suggestions for micro-mini, intermediate temperature, low light orchids and any non-orchids you can think of that will do well in very high humidity and low air circulation. Thanks!
