amber, its not really a matter of what
plants will go well with the betta. he would enjoy any type of live
plant.
the question is what
plants would do best in the environment you have. aquatic
plants are a bit different to care for than terrestrial
plants. you need a delicate balance of fertilizer, light, and CO2 injection. too much of one, or not enough of another will cause the
plants to not grow, even die, and algae to take over. some
plants do well with very low light, no ferts, and no added CO2. others require very high levels of all three.
i'd suggest you start asking questions at a forum like
