Lighted Pots
Why not combine two landscape needs into one? Lighted pots are a clever way to provide outdoor lighting in an unusual and beautiful way. They come in a variety of sizes and colors, and are usually made out of opaque plastic that creates a diffuse, soft illumination when lit from the inside. Lighted pots can have a plug-in light source or be solar-powered.PVC Window Boxes
