Landscape lighting for my garden makes it more attractive and also highlights a path and a pond. The path is marked with both ground imbedded lights and small standing lights. The pond is flooded with light and makes it a focal point of the garden.
The use of different colors in the landscape lighting makes the visual scene subtle in ways which ad to the garden beauty. The various plants are spotlighted to impress upon the viewer the variety of flora within the garden space. Special affects can be obtained by having the light loop in intensity and color. The lighted pathway is well defined by the landscape lighting, which mark the sides of the path. This makes walking through the garden after dark easy and safe.
The larger plants can have more light played upon them with the use of landscape lighting. The smaller plants need a diffusion of light so they are not overpowered from a visual standpoint. The boarder of the garden can be marked with lights; much like the pathway is outlined. The use of lights to display the garden after dark is a pleasant surprise when showing the garden to an evening visitor.
The power for landscape lighting can be solar or house electricity. The voltage can be either 12 volt or 120 volts. The choice is up to the garden owner, as they both will do a fine job of lighting. You can find more about this idea on the Internet or from your local library. The limits to these lighting effects are only your imagination.
