Glowing trees crop up in my novel Betrayals; on a trip to Centre Parcs I wondered whether a glowing forest might be a useful form of environmental illumination.
Here's Scott's excellent image of Auguste Gienah with a glowing forest as background.

Actually in a glowing forest there might be few shadows, making it difficult to see exactly where the trees and branches are - this could cause a problem when walking through the woods at night. Maybe glowing trees should be interspersed with non-glowing trees to give soime contrast.
