Special Landscape Lighting Techniques

 |
Tree Lighting Up-lighting provides an excellent way to highlight
the beauty of trees, especially flowering types. Place fixtures on outside
of dripline if the foliage is dense. Place fixture close to the trunk if the flowers are spread throughout the canopy and/or the foliage is light. Down-lighting can be used to loght up flower beds or other areas of interest around the base of a tree.

Pathway Lighting This method is used primarily to create a symmetrical
pattern of light for navigation. Fully shielded fixtures may be positioned
along landscape cutouts and pathways to add safety, security and visibility
at night. Partially shielded lights may be positioned behind taller greener,
allowing light to filter through onto paths and to distribute more illumination
in and around the landscape.
