Liveaquaria has plant packs but they're a mixed lot of foreground to background plants none specialize in light requirements, IMO I like buying individual plants you'll be safe with selecting any type of moss or fern really wisteria hornwort are other plants that are very hardy and can flourish in most lighting conditions although preferring in strong light to grow faster

Anubias and Crypts are another good choice, tend to do well in low - medium light settings...

I don't know about a starter bundle, but the best way I've found to get cheap plants is to search through eBay. Many people just sell their trimmings on eBay, so you can get massive bunches of plants for a fraction of what they'd cost from any store.
