Anyone mess with accent lighting their prized plants? Any experimentation or find anything that works best? Lets see some pictures.
I just took a pic of my rostrata at night. I have a cheap solar night light that I placed behind it earlier this summer. Not the greatest pic; taken with cell phone.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

I actually have a blue light theme in the back yard I have 3 3w LED lights. Up lighting my Windmill. One thing you can customize landscape lights is "gels" often used for theater blighting trim them to fit you landscape lights. You can make the boring white anything you like. Really makes things more interesting. I'll post pictures in a bit.

Did you happen to get any pics of your plants with the lighting?
