The SuperTrees make great trees, but they appear dramatically
smaller than the more true sized SuperSage tree.
My challenge now was to determine the best way to use them; to
have these co-exist on the same layout in a visually appealing way
with other, smaller trees. Here are my suggestions, I hope some
may work for you.
As a large foreground tree
A spot at the front of my layout had a couple of small trees next
to a small structure. I removed the smaller trees and I replaced
with the large maple.
The scene immedi-
ately changed for the
better. The visible
relationship between
the structure and its
environment was
improved. The next
closest trees were
along the back drop,
the difference in size
wasn’t obvious.
If you decide to build
trees along these lines
in great number, the
highest attached cost
will be for the Silfor
leaves. I recommend
