The value of lighting in the garden

Now is a good time to introduce lighting to a garden to extend the time spent outside and create an enchanting place to enjoy endless evenings relaxing and entertaining under the stars.

A well-designed lighting scheme will bring a whole new magical dimension to the garden once the sun has gone down. The garden lighting schemes recommended and installed by Charles Hogarth Landscapes are simple and discreet. Combined with carefully chosen planting they create a unique atmosphere to relax in and escape from the stresses and strains of everyday life. Garden lighting can be both decorative and functional and, if selected and positioned well, will work in harmony with the whole design of an outdoor space. The secret is not to use too many different effects.

Plan a lighting scheme carefully

It is important to plan a lighting scheme carefully and think about the mood you want to create. It will achieve a more subtle and sophisticated effect by lighting selected areas to create a focal point. Getting the balance right is key so don't be tempted to light up the whole garden or the effect will become bland. In addition to pockets of lighting around the patio, deck or seating areas, place lights beneath specimen trees and architectural plants to illuminate the structure and foliage and create dramatic shadow effects. Underwater lighting is also very effective, particularly in clear water when directed to illuminate a fountain or waterfall.
