What happens here
The first step involves installing landscape spotlights to illuminate vertical plants and landscaping features. These lights are typically placed in garden beds or mulch areas, angled upwards to highlight foliage, trees, or other vertical elements, creating dramatic accents and depth in the nighttime landscape. Dig a small hole for each spotlight, position the light, and run the low-voltage wiring back to a central transformer location.
Goal: Illuminate vertical plants and landscaping features.
