Trick Out Your Garden With Moonlight Mushrooms

One of the benefits of keeping a garden, besides the produce that you can eat and the satisfaction of nurturing something straight out of the earth is the pure aesthetic value that it provides. It’s nice to look at growing things and know that you’re responsible for it, particularly indoors. When the sun goes down, or when the grow lights are turned off, your planted beds and buckets can still provide you with pretty things to look at, especially if something in there is glowing unnaturally.

Enter: Moonlight Mushrooms. These hand blown glass gadgets are functional spikes that are filled with water and inverted directly into the soil, deep into the roots, where they’ll deliver up to a cup of water overnight. The aesthetic kicker is that phosphorescent bits are infused within the glass, which give off a strange, gentle glow for up to four hours after the lights fall. Great for nocturnal blooming flowerbeds and such.

$20 for three glowing glass mushrooms.
