interesting.
How is the quality of the trees produced in China? Marco |

I don't know about the quality of the trees, but I got some bamboo from a Chinese manufacturer that looks very good. I haven't based it yet so no pictures. Jim |

I bought some palm trees, and some evergreens, and they are quite nice. There are some better evergreens on the market than the ones I bought, but they also cost a lot more, so I will be using some of these, along with others, as a mix, on the tabletop. |

I have some lovely Chinese-made plastic trees I got on Taobao. I don't like the wire ones so much as the brown paint flakes off and can't really be repaired. But the plastic ones are great (the plastic itself is brown). I hot-glue them to MDF circles: link By the way, the leaf litter is from a Chinese company called Tuma. They make very nice scenic supplies. |

Marcus Henry de Graya To be perfectly honest I found the quality to be really good considering there are approximately £3.00 GBP per 10 which in this day and age is absolutely nothing considering a coffee will cost you £250.00 GBP plus. Thank you for everybody's comments much appreciated. Take care Andy |

Nice video womble, you have motivated me to use the trees I got from China and get on with some base making this weekend so thanks! |

I have loads of plastic trees from China. Funny, but in every case I was able to tell from the pictures on Ebay what the quality would be. Some of the really, really nice ones, though, are a little fragile for gaming. Not bad with a good and gentle group, but not for the convention/teenager crowd. |
