Gardeners can choose from several different fixtures. Tier or accent lights define paths, walkways, or steps as well as provide warmth and illumination without an upward glare. Light is projected downward around the base of the fixture in a soft ring. Mushroom and walk lights highlight areas of low foliage borders, walkways, paths, and groundcovers. The lights' large shade conceals the light source.
Floodlights allow areas to come alive at night.
They are aimed up and down fences or walls to highlight texture differences or to shadow the movement of bushes and trees. Step and surface mount lights provide subtle accent lighting for increased safety along sidewalks, buildings, pools, and paths. They direct light in a controlled pattern eliminating glare. Well lights conceal the light source at ground level. They direct the light upward to create special effects.
