Illumination of trees in urban areas - decorative lighting,
emphasizing the beauty and livability of parks, streets and squares.
Fossa Electric Company performs street lighting of trees in Moscow and other cities of Russia.

Features of decorative lighting of trees
Lighting of trees and shrubs makes it possible to transform the night landscape, adjust the level of illumination in each area of the territory, taking into account the features of the landscape.
Lamps are installed on trunks and crowns, under trees, on the ground (directly in the ground or on low supports). You can also install lamps on buildings and direct the light to plant compositions. To emphasize the texture and strength of the tree trunk, spotlights are installed from below. To emphasize large trees, several lamps are used, installed on different sides.
The equipment is selected taking into account the standards in public places and the features of the design project. Cables are laid as inconspicuously as possible, electrical safety conditions are strictly observed. Visualization of lighting design is developed with approximation to real lighting parameters (luminosity, color, coverage) and arrangement of structures in the park area. For maximum accuracy, photographs of the object are used.
Decorative lighting of trees can significantly improve the appearance of the landscape and create a unique atmosphere. Some features of decorative lighting of trees include:
- Choosing lamps: for decorative lighting of trees, it is important to choose lamps that provide uniform and soft lighting without glare. LED lamps with warm light are often a good choice.
- The correct placement of lamps around trees allows you to emphasize their features. Installing lamps at different levels and at different angles helps to create a three-dimensional picture.
- The choice of light temperature is also important in decorative lighting of trees. Warm light creates a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, while cooler light can add drama.
- To create various effects and atmosphere, you can use lighting control systems that allow you to adjust the brightness, color scheme and timing of lighting.
What tasks does outdoor tree lighting solve?
Decorative tree lighting solves the following important tasks:
- One of the main tasks of landscape tree lighting is to create an aesthetically pleasing appearance of a garden or site. Tree lighting on a site allows you to highlight the beauty of trees, emphasize their shape, bark texture, and also create interesting light accents.
- Tree lighting can be used to increase safety on the territory, especially at night. Well-lit trees help prevent injury and make it easier to navigate the site.
- Colored tree lighting can create a cozy and romantic atmosphere on the site. Lighting effects help add soft lighting, create a play of shadows and light, and enhance the visual impressions of the landscape.
- Landscape tree lighting helps create a holistic and harmonious appearance of the site, allows you to emphasize such landscape elements as alleys, pedestrian paths, water features.
- Tree lighting can also be used to increase the functionality of the site, for example, to create illuminated areas for relaxation, barbecues or children's games. This makes the site more convenient and attractive for use at different times of the day.
Advantages of LED tree lighting
Designing Colored Tree Lighting
Landscape tree lighting not only improves the appearance of the landscape, but also performs a number of practical functions, making the site safer, more comfortable and more attractive for residents and guests.
A colorized tree lighting design should include the following elements to ensure effective and harmonious implementation:
- A layout plan for the lighting fixtures. This should take into account the shape and size of each tree, as well as the surrounding environment. Using one fixture for a tree with a small canopy may make it impossible to illuminate a large shrub.
- Selection of light sources. Specifications of the selected LED spotlights, bulbs, or strings for lighting the trees, including their brightness, color temperature, and energy efficiency. Before a designer selects the type of future landscape lighting for green spaces, they need to study what vegetation will need to be illuminated: how old these plants are today and what diameter the canopy will be when this tree reaches its peak growth.
- A description of the selected colors for lighting the trees, including the main colors and their combinations to create the desired effect. You can use RGB (red, green, blue) colors or other shades of your choice.
- Description of the methods for controlling the color, brightness, and modes of the tree lighting, such as using a remote control, timers, apps, or motion sensors.
- A plan for the distribution of electrical wires, sockets, and switches to ensure safe connection and operation of the lights.
- Indication of safety measures for the installation and use of tree lighting, such as protection against short circuits, moisture, and overheating. Also consider resistance to weather conditions and mechanical impacts.
- Estimated costs for the purchase and installation of all necessary materials for colored tree lighting, including the cost of lamps, cables, controllers, and other components.
- Additional 3D visualizations, drawings, or photomontages showing the expected result of colored tree lighting for a better understanding of the project.
LED tree lighting solves two main problems: functional and aesthetic. Light garlands and lampshades on trees growing along the central alleys of streets will increase safety due to a more uniform and strong light flow. With the help of well-organized lighting of plant compositions, you can increase the attendance of a cafe or restaurant, originally standing out from the competition.

Equipment for decorative lighting of trees
Fossa Electric produces a wide range of LED products on modern European equipment. All lighting equipment and supporting structures are made to order, according to design documentation.
For lighting trees, shrubs and plant compositions we use:
- Ground spotlights. They are installed directly in the ground, directed upward to create diffused light or directed light beams.
- LED garlands. Flexible strips with bright LED bulbs can be made in any length to wrap around tree branches.
- Pendant lamps. Lampshades of various shapes and sizes are used, suspended on flexible and rigid supports.
- LED lights with diffused light. They are installed in the tree crown, creating the effect of glowing from within.
Classic white or colored tree lighting is usually used. For classic lighting, LEDs with a soft, comfortable glow close to the natural color spectrum are used. Three-color RGB systems can also be used, using all colors simultaneously or alternately (using installed controllers).
For the installation of night lighting systems, spotlights with vandal-proof housings that are resistant to moisture and temperature changes are used. LED strips are also not afraid of moisture, frost, sun exposure and mechanical impacts.
Stages of implementing a project for multi-colored tree lighting
Fossa Electric offers a range of turnkey services - lighting design, design, production and installation of lighting equipment for outdoor lighting of trees in a park, garden or on a site.
- Upon receipt of an order for calculation, the lighting designer goes to the site (the service is free) to take photos, assess the features of the territory.
- Determines the main purpose (utilitarian, decorative function).
- After collecting the data, develops visualization, design documentation, calculates the cost of lighting.
- We manufacture lighting equipment to order, we carry out installation within the agreed time frame.
You can order landscape lighting of trees and shrubs on the site of a country house in the landscape lighting design complex.
