Abstract
A system for plant illumination that may be installed in or made as part of a planting pot. The system employs a string of illuminable fixtures each having an illumination source. The fixtures may be operated on low voltage that steps down through a transformer and may employ an ambient light sensor. The system may incorporate light globes that protect the illumination sources and may incorporate a transparent color to provide colored light. Light shields may be employed to direct the light from each illumination source. A splashguard may be employed and placed between the illumination source and its respective socket to prevent water from entering the socket. The container may be formed with two walls to protect the wiring being disposed there between.
