When the evening drops its curtain, the stage turns into a soothing one where fantasy embraces you and me. The night is calm but the heart is young and vibrant. Everything is just around the corner and we are ready to illuminate the mysterious night with ever-brilliant glowing plants. This marks the dawn of a new era of ornamental plants, and enhanced carbon capture is also attained. A novel vein absorption approach coupled with the state-of-the-art high entropy material technology is used to decorate the plant leaf, which is not at all a genetically modified way, thus preserving the nature of the plant and yet giving a brand-new, remarkable pleasing outlook for the plant. Plant glows and shows luminous light in various colors when the night comes. An aesthetically feast for a relaxing and enriched night. The three primary colors of RGB are the essence of the plant’s illumination, hence when walking into a glowing plant garden, one would enjoy the privilege to receive light with a "spectrum" that can be tailored to suit one’s need. A glowing plant garden shows an unprecedent visual art that extends the panoramic landscape art. The artery environment induces the basic human senses to create a therapeutic atmosphere that would heal and purify the soul. One can render such a new experience to build a cozy, healing oasis at home. Another spectacular feature of the glowing plant is to create more desirable plant photoperiods for the agriculture industry to reach and carry forward to Plant Science 2.1. This represents the second chance that the carbon fixation would be largely increased fur the night illumination. Here, the green high entropy material, combined with nongenetic vein absorption technology, mimics the daylight environment at light using soothing colorful glowing plant. The carbon fixation rate thereby increases more than 40.6 %, as compared the one without such a mimic environment. This is a brilliant carbon-negative idea that is achieved under a circumstance of delightful glowing botanic garden. Glowing plant therefore features combined human being’s artistic therapy and the zero carbon emission in the future world.
