What is the Best Lighting for a Tree?

Outdoor Lighting Perspectives has several methods of lighting trees throughout your landscape.

Every landscape is unique. Even the slope and terrain of your property can be vastly different than that of your neighbors. Whether you live in a burgeoning neighborhood or a historic neighborhood with mature trees, Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of St. Louis can help you beautifully illuminate the trees all around your property with our residential outdoor lighting for trees.

Sphere Lighting for a Tree

There is something magical about glowing orbs of light. Whether those are made of grapevines, white globes, or Moravian stars, spheres aloft in trees create an air of romance and whimsy. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives can help you create the perfect scene with various sphere lights, mixed materials and sizes, mounted at different heights and depths for a one-of-a-kind lighting display.

Moon Lighting for a Tree

Moon lighting your tree is a dramatic effect that is sure to make any mature tree a showstopping focal point. Whether you have one tree or 10, moon lighting is a way to make them truly shine. This effect is achieved by mounting lighting high up in the tree, shining down to create shadows on the ground that mimic the effect of moonlight.

Up Lighting for a Tree

Up lighting for a tree is akin to moon lighting, but the light is mounted beneath the tree, shining upwards. This too, can offer an air of drama in any tree by illuminating branches typically unseen at night. Uplighting flows throughout the branches, but also illuminates the tree’s surface on the way up, bringing out natural imperfections and textures.

String Lighting for a Tree

We would be remiss not to mention string lighting. For some time now, string lighting for trees has not been wholly relegated to the holiday season. This dreamy tree lighting effect is ideal for private backyard retreats, woodland paths, parties, and more. This type of lighting for a tree will have you feeling festive no matter the time of year.
