Firefly Petunia

Thanks for the review! I wonder if the glow will increase once the plant is well established and growing actively.

Yeah, that will probably help. I guess the flower buds are the brightest too. We'll see what happens.

Any update on this?

Humorous update of sorts. Seems biotech engineers have the same issues with plant care as bonsaiists.

My biotech plants are dead

Two ‘Firefly petunias’ perished in a shipping misadventure, but other customers have had better luck.

It appears my older sister has recently acquired one of these, growing large and healthy indoors in a pot.
Not sure how long they live in captivity like that, or whether these will grow from seed, but she's enjoying it. Says it's like a soft ghostly cloud when she wakes up in the middle of the night.

Just thought I'd share for funsies.
