Not an ad or anything but I got it from light.bio if you’re curious. Super cool product, I’ve been waiting for a company to successfully bring a bioluminescent plant to the market for a decade and it finally happened!

    I used the night sight feature on my phone’s camera for this photo, however I would say the brightness level is pretty accurate to what you’d see with the the naked eye once adjusted to low light.

    Perhaps a tad dimmer in real life, but it provides enough light to faintly illuminate really close objects such as my hand. It’s super cool

      Super neat. At some point I need to intern at a plant breeding lab just to inject that into all of my houseplants that can tolerate it. Right now I’ve got a mix of pothos, hoyas, philodendrons, and jasmines trailing around my house and it’d be so much better if they were one long nightlight.

        I really hope this company (and others) are successful, it would be so awesome to have a variety of plant species available in GMO bioluminescent forms lol.
