Landscape lighting has many benefits. From increasing the usability of an outdoor entertainment area and lighting a pathway for safer navigation to the front door to enhancing the appearance and ambiance and deterring thieves, outdoor lighting is an important part of any landscaping plan. Traditional outdoor lighting solutions mainly require electric cables or batteries. However, solar lights offer an easy-to-install and relatively maintenance-free option. Likewise, this makes them perfect in places like Southern California that see an abundance of sunlight for most of the year. Elegantly illuminate your yard with these seven terrific solar solutions:
