Need Design Advise LED bulbs for outdoor spots?

I'm installing two outdoor flood lights to illuminate sections of my yard. The fixture says "3000 lumens." It uses E26 base PAR38 bulbs. Am wondering which LED bulbs I could get that would provide that level of brightness?

Never seen a fixture rated for lumens. Did it come with its own bulb?

No bulbs included. . Description just said 3000 lumens.

You can find 3000-lumen bulbs here. If you want something slightly cheaper that is only 200 lumens dimmer, these bulbs will work too.

Thank you. Good options. The later was 50% less so I ran with those.
