Horticulture magazine Amateur Gardening pranked their readers in 2000 by running a story on luminous flowers, but the joke has now become a reality thanks to experts at a seed company.
The product has been created thanks to research done by horticulturists at Unwins, who created a special spray that would achieve the desired affect without damaging the plants.
The colourful bouquet includes five unusually coloured flowers as well as three creepy Chrysanthemums that glow in the dark when the lights go off.
Unwins added a touch of darkness with birch and oak leaves painted black to complete their unique Halloween product.
They carried out a trial that found the luminous spray, which is usually used for fabrics, does not affect the quality, or shelf life, of the leaves or petals.
James Oakey, the head of horticulture at Unwins, said: "We created this spooky bouquet of flowers especially for Halloween.
"They are perfect for the upcoming celebrations, particularly because the Chrysanthemums light up in a spooky green colour in the dark.
"Their shape makes them look like spiders, they've gone down really well with children.
"Their glow also illuminates the unusual shapes of the flowers around them."
He added: "We made sure that the spray did absolutely no damage to the plants before bringing them to the market.
"I have had a glow-in-the-dark bouquet at my house for two weeks and it's still looking fresh."
The plant does not need any special treatment after purchase and can be maintained in the same way as any other bouquet of flowers.
Unwins are offering the product as a Halloween special and will only be sending out one shipment, just before October 31.
The bouquet is currently being sold through the company's website for £25.
