There are seven different colors, such as green, gold, red and blue. This is a nice garden accessory that doesn’t use electricity and won’t fatten your electricity bill. At the same time, it will add a romantic touch to your outdoor area.

Just take a look at these beautiful  Northern Lights Spheres that can be purchased for $24.95.
Note: after it rains you need to make sure the spheres are clean so they can charge.
