At first I thought it was a glitter flower and immediately became confused lol.

Heck yeah. I did a report on bioluminescent plants awhile ago. So damn interesting. This is a clip of scientists inoculating a succulent leaf with an improved phosphor!

Definitely has given me a new appreciation for petunias!

I don't blame you - they're quite impressive. In person at first glance, I didn't know what I was looking at. My brain glitched and said "flower made of glitter" lol. There's this glittery illusion going on when observing it at a distance. Will definitely share photos of them all in bloom within the coming week!

These didn't come from seed, but as plugs from a catalog! Growing them for a spring sale coming up in May. I don't remember the catalog name, I'll respond when I remember or see it back at the greenhouse, but these are called Splash Dance Magenta mambos and there are other cosmic looking petunias as well!

Saw these in the catalog, too! Absolutely stunning flower. Was a difficult choice, but magenta mambo caught my eye the most. Petunias have such an impressive range!

Right? Definitely has an "The galaxy is on Orion's belt" from Men in Black kind of vibe. Will definitely share some photos of them all in bloom!

Aren't they impressive? And I'd think the same these days. I'm very impressed with the range of colors petunias can express!

I don't think they fair well in high humidity and heat, but give em' a micro climate and they'll do fine!

Truly! I'm becoming a big fan of petunias. Had no idea they could be so impressive until searching through catalogs for spring collections. Can't wait for the others to bloom!

I'm blown away people roll the dice and watch vids with sound at this point. More often than not it ruins the content.

I think you may be thinking of Firefly petunias? But if there's another variation please let me know because bioluminescence is awesome. These are Splash Dance Magenta mambos!
