Here are a couple that I built for the new GMLTC layout:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=35575
The two sizes of "multi-node leaf things" (good term, Amy!) are just stacked
on a piece of Technic flex tubing, and the tubing is stuck into the center
of a brown 2x2 round brick. An old 'Ages 3+' green flower element helps top
the taller one, along with a few 1x1 green round bricks.
We made about 10 of this type of tree for our 'park' section, I hope to be
posting pictures soon.
