Mercury vapor lighting is excellent for landscape lighting applications. It produces a blue-green color, similar to moonlight, and is the lamp choice of landscape lighting professionals for down lighting from trees. It has a long lamp life (up to 24,000 hours) and is available in 50, 100, 175, 250, and 400 watts.

Other lamp choices such as high pressure sodium and metal halide are more efficient for security lighting and have better color rendering. If you need help selecting a fixture or assistance with a lighting design give me a call at 800-239-2939. Thanks for the question.
