Looking for something pretty, and easy to grow

So I've had reasonable success growing cubensis, my wife is very interested in growing something more decorational. Has anyone had much luck with anything really pretty?

sporeworks used to sell them if i am not mistaken.
Have people cultivated glowing edibles indoor? Figure it would be more popular if it was a thing...

*I don't think most glowing species are edible. More of a novelty really. Could be wrong though I've never grown them and don't feel like looking it up

Never tried yellows. Are they strange too? I think pinks are a little weird for oysters.

I've yet to meet an ugly mushroom. Enoki grown in full light is a sight to behold although any type of chicken of the woods would be stunning. I've got a poplar oyster that perfumes up the whole place like anise and tarragon in a dreamy way. Lots of options.

I'm looking for decorational rather than good to eat. Good to eat is a bonus, but glow in the dark is a bit more of one.
