What is the latest European fashion in home decor for Christmas? How about spooky radioactive-looking glowing flowers.

"The market needs fresh ideas and innovation, and Glowing Flowers fit into the 'bling bling' trend," [FloraHolland BV] said, referring to a fad for wearing copious jewelry inspired by rap musicians.

"The expectation is that the light-giving products will be primarily well-received in southern and eastern Europe," it said.

(In fact, this strikes me as a rather snide dig at Mediterraneans and Slavs, but let it go.)

I dunno. Walking around a darkened room full of these things would make me think I'd stumbled into the Yule of the Damned.
