Light blooms from a garden of tall, fanciful flowers. This ever-blooming garden of flowers creates a magical atmosphere in any setting. The nighttime garden reminds of us of moonlight, fireflies and starlight brought down to the earth.
Flower stalks are made of forged steel tubing with ornamental leaves and tendrils. During the day, these large sculptural flowers sparkle in the sunlight while the solar power plant contained in the provided rock gathers energy. At night the solid chunky glass flowers glow from fiber optic cable run up through the stalks. The LED light fixtures are contained in the base. Fiber optics also illuminate the marbles in the base casting a subtle light from below. The sturdy base is approximately 6² tall and 4¹ in diameter and can be securely mounted to any surface.
