Is your tree more striking than the lights on your house? This is the list for you.

Willow Glen finds a lot of its charm from the incredible trees that line almost every block … and we’re not just talking about those traditional Christmas yard trees. It makes perfect sense that some of the most impressive holiday displays incorporate our trees with light wraps, uniquely sized ornaments, and colorful bulbs.

Blue & White Christmas: This big tree is differwent from the rest. Residents have selected an array of blue and white lights for their large front yard tree, casting a pleasant glow across the street. It’s not snowing much this year in California, but this tree makes you dream of a white holiday … Curtner & Hicks.

Slow Down to See It: The residents decorate this big pine tree in front of their house with hundreds of lights and lots of big ornaments. It’s on a busy street, so don’t blink … Curtner & Hicks.

Tropical Christmas: All year long, one house on Juanita boasts the most stately palm tree in all of Willow Glen, and each December, they light up each palm frond with its own string. Impressive! … Juanita, north of Pine (just south of Willow Glen Way).

Genie Lift: With a tall tree on a very visible corner, the residents of this house put on a light show each December; it’s also fun to watch the installation and clean-up if your timing is right. With its location along a major neighborhood gateway, this tree could give the WG Elementary tree some competition … Bird at Minnesota.

Speaking of which … no, you’re not seeing things. It’s worth noting in this section that the big tree downtown (technically on the elementary school campus) is a different tree than has been lit in the past.
