Glowing plants could act as biological night lights

Some people can boast a green thumb, but very few people can boast a glowing green thumb. For a pledge of $40, Glowing Plants will send you 50 to 100 seeds to let you raise your own glowing plant at home.

While prototype glowing plants have been created, there's a chance that this first round of Kickstarter plants may not glow quite as much as people would like. "We hope to have a plant which you can visibly see in the dark (like glow in the dark paint) but don't expect to replace your light bulbs with version 1.0," the teams says.
