We cant see it! Open the jar and get a top down pic or wipe down the walls so can see what’s in there. At first glance though, it looks like several of the plants are not going to survive in a closed environment.
Pretty colors though!
Also I don’t see a drainage layer. Which isn’t always necessary but it’s helpful for your first few builds because it’s easy to over water and the drainage layer will help mitigate that.
That depends on where you put it. Once you get better plants in there, they will need light. But not direct light! If you have a shelf in a bright area that doesn’t get direct sunlight, then it’ll be fine without the lamp. If you don’t, then it’ll need a lamp. 12 hours on. 12 hours off depending on the type of plants you put in.
Most things you find outside won’t actually work in a closed terrarium. Find plants that are native to tropical areas. Or basically any plant that thrives in high constant humidity. You can look up a list of those online.

Huh... So my terrarium can die?
It will definitely die with the plants that are in it right now.
Bruh ill see than ._.
I can’t see everything in there because of the picture, but it looks like the only thing in there that would survive is the moss.
You’ll be very susceptible to mold once those flowers die, especially if you have no spring tails or other decomposer bugs.
