Dollar Tree Has An Outdoor Light That's Perfect For Flower Beds

Once the sun goes down, it can be hard to enjoy the beauty of your flower beds and yard. Choosing the right outdoor solar lights lets you illuminate your garden and walkways in an eco-friendly way, as they rely on the sun for power. These lights can also be quite beautiful depending on the style chosen. A great place to shop for unique and affordable solar lights is Dollar Tree, which offers plenty of spring garden essentials, as well as holiday and seasonal lighting options for your flower beds. 

A popular solar light option that has been available at Dollar Tree for a few years now is the Garden Collection Butterfly In A Jar Solar Stake Lights. Dollar Tree offers an assortment of designs, including a ladybug, in a jar. These solar light stakes are just under 15 inches tall, which lets them sit above any ground cover. The lid of the jar has rechargeable batteries and a small solar panel for powering the lights. At $1.50 each, these solar stakes are a great find, particularly since there are similar solar lights on the market for $17 each at other stores.

Before using these lights, you'll want to pull out the small tab that protects the batteries from wearing out. Dollar Tree recommends allowing these stakes to be placed with the solar panel in direct sunlight for at least eight hours so that it gets a full charge. Even in your flower bed, you'll want to make sure that the solar panel is in direct sunlight to get the most illumination out of these butterfly jar stakes at night.

If you want to illuminate your outdoor space with an affordable solar light option that also looks whimsical, the Butterfly in a Jar Solar Stake Lights could be a great choice that adds a warm glow to your flower beds. Currently, the Dollar Tree product page shows that these solar lights have a 4-star rating with one published review. The reviewer liked the "design aesthetic" of these stake lights, but mentioned that the light doesn't last long. "It really adds a whimsy touch to my flowers to have these in the ground [...] The light fades away after only a few hours if lucky. In general, I find that DT's solar lights don't last very long."

These solar lights have been available seasonally for a few years, so there are social media users who have talked about these stakes in the past. Instagram user jackie_y90 shared that she hoped these lights would be brought back after adding them to her indoor potted plants: "I hope Dollar Tree had a similar solar light this year for Spring. I love these butterfly ones." "So pretty! Perfect for my butterfly garden," shared another user, doitonadime. The comments section of her post agreed; the consensus was that these lights are pretty, and people really love the look of them.
