Yes.. I suppose thats the reason why people prefer to buy or build their own plants and trees. I could try to seize the trunk and stick some lichens on it.. If the result is worthy I will upload a picture.
Thanks Blufalchion

MarklinofSweden is also quite good. Our own BB Paul (Beano Boy) have made a tutorial for trees. That terrain tutor-channel sounds interesting! Must take a look!

I recommend other alternatives to natural plants, since you have to dry them first with glycerin and currently on the market there are a number of products to make vegetation very realistic.
I recommend that you visit the woodland scenics page and you will see wonders.
You can also compare on the pages of brands like ammo mig, or stores like Jordi rubio modelismo.
By the way, where are you from?
Santi.
