I just love the lighted Christmas tree so much I might get a decorative ficus for white lights or something. Still, that seems so plain. |
Ficus are moody plants and it might throw a tantrum and shed all its leaves it you put stuff on and take it off monthly.
Trying to think of a puppy safe plant... Hmm maybe even a topiary??
You could do Valentines, St Patty's, Easter, then you have Labor Day, armed forces day and memorial in May flag day in June Independence Day in July so you can stick with red, white, blue and stars for that period then by Sept you jump into autumn colors then halloween, thanksgiving and christmas..... You could just stick with white lights to keep it simple and do bows and like eggs for Easter, rainbows, gold coins and shamrocks for st Patty's and flags for the American pride times.
