The mornings are getting cool and crisp, the lawns are dewy, and the days are getting shorter. At University Sprinklers, it is a time of year when we shift our gears slightly into landscape lighting.
Landscape lighting helps our customers enjoy their gardens into the evening, after the sun has gone down. Beautiful trees can be “up-lit” to highlight majestic structures and interesting branch formations, well after the leaves have hit the ground. Bed lighting minds the hours as perennials make their retreat, leaving seed pods and stems behind to mark their place. Pathways, waterfalls and rock walls become features instead of background players. Landscape lighting adds a whole new dimension to a garden that can lift spirits and bring the outdoors in, even when the weather keeps you on the inside looking out.
It’s also worth noting that landscape lighting is inexpensive to operate, giving you great bang for your buck. Low voltage lights and photosensitive cells and timers make sure your lights are only on when you want them. LED lights offer a 90% savings in energy costs, and many landscape lights can be used with readily available LED bulbs.
Are you looking for inspiration? Check out our landscape lighting gallery to see how some of our customers have used landscape lighting to showcase their gardens in the “off season”. We are very proud of this work.
