there is a material called oasis that floral designers use and you can get it at craft/floral supply stores. it comes in lots of colors and might work, or you could use small green marbles

Yeah, medic is right on. The oasis can be taped to the glass with floral tape or there's a oasis holder spike that you can use floral clay underneath. I'd use the clear floral tape. Cut the Oasis smaller than the glass on all side, tape it down and then fill around the oasis with green or yellowish green sand. Problem is with wet arranglement, the sand may discolor a bit. The glass marbles may be better afterall.........hmmm. Check around the hobby store to see what else might work.....glitter would be too messy, plastic confetti, hmmm.
