Umbel
Planting light
One point of light. Every direction at once.
The light, its use and its story
Where most planting lights throw in a single direction, the Umbel radiates evenly outward from a central point through four separate LEDs, spreading a wide, soft wash across everything around it. Set one into the middle of a bed and the whole planting is lit from within, rather than washed flatly from the edge.
It's the efficient choice for open areas and broad borders, covering ground that would otherwise take three or four directional fixtures - fewer fittings, fewer cable runs, and a more natural result.
An umbel is a flower head where every stalk springs from a single central point - cow parsley, fennel, angelica. The fixture is built the same way as the thing it's named for.
Every Hudson fixture takes its name from the British landscape after dark - its creatures, its plants, and the old country words for dusk.
Placement & specifications
Layered planting beds and borders around outdoor living spaces.
Placement advice
Set the light among the planting so its pool of light belongs to that small area. Allow for seasonal growth when choosing the position.
Avoid illuminating the whole bed. Leave unlit areas for wildlife and switch off when the space is no longer in use.

Test details and source notes
The shape shows relative intensity, not how far the light travels. Candela values come from the file. This is not a site illuminance calculation or a compliance assessment.
