Terrain Workshop: Trees 7

It's been a minute since we had a Terrain Workshop -- and since I wanted to do more of them this year let's get back to it.  I stumbled across the Minifig Hot Dog/Sausage in Reddish Brown while digging through a set for other pieces and that gave me an idea for a small tree/large bush.  (I guess this is the "Year of the Tree" for Terrain Workshop?)  Fitting four of those into a Travis Brick, then placing Round Plates w/3 Leaves on the end of those simulates branches and foliage.  Placing that on top of two 1x1 Round Bricks and capping it off with a Cone leads to a total of twelve pieces which is 2 Hits.

Size comparison with the usual suspects.

In 6P scale it's 12 feet tall and 12.5 feet wide, with the trunk being 2.5 feet thick.  It could make for some sort of a Rhododendron, especially if you changed the color on one or more of the leaves.  It could also make for a pretty decent looking tree in one of the smaller scales, 4P or 2P possibly.  I feel like it would fit in well with Little Brick Root's style of building.

If you think it's too tall you could swap out one of the 1x1 Round Bricks for a 1x1 Round Plate which would keep the parts quantity the same -- and also keep it above the height minimum for Cover -- but reduce it to 10 feet tall in 6P scale.
