Solar-powered Cattail Lights Brighten Your Garden

Lindsay ~ 27 March 2007

Looking for a way to brighten up your garden by night? Installing solar-powered lamps is an easy way to do it (no wiring required), and you can get them in all sorts of fun shapes.

These solar cattails almost look like the real thing sprouting up from the soil. They come with panels that collect energy from the sun by day, so the LED lamps hidden inside the cattails can glow for hours at night. A built-in sensor detects nightfall and only turns the lights on when it’s dark. Each lamp is made from steel, amber glass, and plastic and stands 33″ high. A stake lets you secure them into the ground for stability.

The solar garden lights cost $32 a piece from the Gardener’s Supply Company:
