Are LED garden lights better for the outdoors?
LED lights are the best option to use for outdoor lighting because they’re long lasting, energy efficient, and super durable. To pick the right LED light, our advice is to identify where you’re putting the garden lights. Pick a warm white for a fairy light effect or a bright white to highlight a water fountain. Whichever feature of your garden you’re highlighting, our outdoor lights will look fabulous and last the test of time.
Are solar lights good for gardens?
Yes, solar lights are an excellent choice for gardens because they are energy-efficient, eco-friendly, and easy to install. They work by soaking up and store the sunlight rather than using wiring, making solar lights perfect for the outdoors. Easily place them on pathways, flowerbeds, and patios to highlight areas of your garden. Solar garden lights switch on automatically as the sun sets, and require minimal maintenance beyond cleaning the solar panel.
How should I position garden lights for the best effect?
There are a few ways you can position garden lights for both functionality and beauty. Here are the different types of lights and how to place them:
- Path lights: Place path lights along footpaths at regular intervals to guide movement without overwhelming brightness. This can also highlight beautiful stone work.
- Garden spotlights: Use spotlights to highlight focal points such as trees, sculptures, or textured walls. Aiming these landscape lights upward for dramatic shadows.
- Fairy lights: For decorative ambience, install string or fairy lights around seating areas, pergolas, or shrubs.
