That should lower electricity bills in greenhouses everywhere. Assuming it has pretty flowers or is good to eat.

I always found that 3 or 4 would give everything a certain glow.

Where are the mutant man-eating bunny rabbits they’ve been promising for the last 50 years or so?

What is the toxicity level of the leaves, flowers and plant sap?

Are these plants invasive?

Perfect for a porch garden. Now I have some solar cell powered lanterns that provide some vibe and a bit of light.

These plants are a bitch to grow.
YOU have to sing quantum mechanic songs to them and feed them photons.

Something about this reminds me of the SPF 5000 sunblock from the movie RoboCop.

VERY cool achievement ... naturally, their glowplants are annuals that have short lifespans indoors ... sort of like the Replicants in Blade Runner ...

so much for “easy to grow” Petunias indoors, though:

“Petunias can be grown indoors as houseplants, but it can be tricky. Place the potted Petunia in a warm area that receives lots of bright sunlight and water when the very top of the soil starts to dry out. Petunias typically go dormant, and the plant needs lots of light to resist this natural urge. You may need to use a grow light to keep a Petunia growing throughout the winter. If the plant has a dormancy period, let it happen and wait until the spring to see if the Petunia starts growing again.

Moving indoors can be stressful, so the foliage may drop. If the Petunia loses its leaves, move the plant to a protected area and wait until the spring to see if the plant starts growing again.”

https://plantaddicts.com/growing-petunias-in-pots/#:~:text=Petunias%20can%20be%20grown%20indoors,to%20resist%20this%20natural%20urge.

i’m gonna wait to buy a glowplant when they make one from a heartier indoor plant like maybe a Begonia, Spider Plant, Mother-In-Law-Tongue, Philodendron, etc. ...

They only come in one color - day glow green.
