Water in motion is facinating to watch.  An easy way to add interest to your landscape is by installing a fountain or waterfall.

With traditional methods, installing the electrical equipment was tricky, expensive and potentially dangerous.

With modern solar technology, costs are radically less and voltages low and safe.

Post lighting can dress up your walkways, entrances and decks.  Solar post lights accomplish this for a very reasonable cost.

Landscape lighting can not only be attractive it can also help protect people and property. 

Solar security lights provide and inexpensive and easy way to place some light where you need it when you need it.

Unlike most other lights, solar security lights have motion sensors so they only snap on when there is motion in the area they are "watching".  

At some point you might want landscape lighting that is not only decorative but also highly functional.  By functional I mean it is bright enough to provides enough light to see signs or walkways clearly.

Modern solar lighting can fill this need for many applications at a fraction of the cost of traditional landscape lighting.  The savings comes from not having to run house current to a remote spot in the landscape.

Lighting in this category can also double as emergency lighting for power outages or lighting remote buildings such as a gazebo or cabin. 

Well designed landscape lighting draws attention to the best parts of your lawn and garden.  One good way to accomplish this is with directional lighting placed at dramatic angles.

Directional lights are often refered to as "spot" lights.
