I bought a glowing plant. It led me down a rabbit hole of radiant mushrooms, 19th century experiments and a modern rivalry between scientists in Russia and the Americas.
I don’t think you could get wood/bark to fluoresce as it’s dead tissue… in general some tree species are very easy to work with and engineer. Poplar for example

But some parts of the tree must be still living
Oh yes of course. I just mean the bark wouldn’t shine but you could see in the leaves
But couldn’t they target the vascular cambium?
Sure I suppose. And it may glow. Just wouldn’t be able to see it through the dead bark
You could totally get glowing fungus to grow on wood
I have a guide for how to do this at home! Wouldn’t let me add the pictures for some reason![]()
