Multiple mini trees one string of pixels???

I have a two small tree frames I found at the store... One I have it running with100 pixels zig zag (2 strings of 50)... My question is... How can I use another 100 pixel to zig zag the other smaller tree? I am using a raspberry pi with fpp... I'm experimenting at the time until next year once I learn more about this. I am not sure if I need to use a different gpio pin for the second tree or can I hook all lights at once and do it that way? I have been looking around but I haven't found a similar issue. Thanks for any guidence [img][/img

The pi should be able to drive 200 pixles from one GPIO pin in terms of data, however, you'll likely need to power inject to get them to all turn on.
