First off, sorry if this is the wrong place. I couldn't see any dedicated terrain forum so I hope this is fine here!

Anyways, I'm putting together a small 12" x 12" Rhodesian Bush diorama. Eureka Miniatures produced some of the only Rhodesian-era figures I've ever seen and they truly are excellent. What I thought was the major problem of sourcing figures is actually now the least of them! Basically, I need some help finding trees that would suit an African Bush or Savanna landscape. I tried the major online model shop I normally use (www.emodels.co.uk) and couldn't find what I was looking for (unless I've missed something). I also tried Woodland Scenics but again they all seemed very European in style, unless I'm mistaken.

Would anyone be able to help me out and direct me to any UK websites that sell trees and vegetation for a Southern African environment? I'd be forever in your debt!

EDIT: Here's some images for further clarification!

Has a tutorial on making them from scratch.

I would suggest using ripped down CoCo Mat instead of rubberized horse hair you can get it any garden center it's just the husk hair from coconuts.
