About product

What palm trees are for

Greenery decides where a scene takes the viewer. A conifer sets a layout in the mountains, a linden on a village green and a palm on a coast or in the warm south. A palm also works as a vertical element: a slender trunk takes up almost no room on a base, yet it breaks the horizontal line of a scene and lends it depth.

Placement in the scene

Palm trees look believable when you spread them out irregularly and at various heights. A row of equally tall trees lined up as if by a ruler gives a model away at first glance; a small group of two or three pieces, where one stands out and the others are lower, looks natural. Before gluing, hold a tree up to a building or a vehicle in the scene and compare the height, so that the size matches the rest of the layout. It also pays to leave free space between the trees: dense growth from edge to edge takes the air out of a scene.

Setting them on a base

Drill a hole in the base to suit the diameter of the trunk and glue the tree into it, so that it stands firmly and upright. With taller pieces it pays to reinforce the joint in the hole with a drop of glue and to let it dry thoroughly before you start moving the scene. Then mask the foot of the trunk with grass, sand or small stones, so that the transition to the terrain is not visible. Blow the dust off a finished scene or sweep it away carefully with a soft brush.

FAQ

On a coast, in a harbor, by buildings in warm regions and everywhere a scene is to look southern. They also work as a vertical element that breaks up the flat line of a layout.

Most reliably into a hole drilled to suit the diameter of the trunk, and by gluing. The tree then stands upright and firmly even when the scene is handled.

Irregularly and at various heights, ideally in small groups of two or three pieces. A straight row of equally tall trees looks artificial.

Blow the dust off or sweep it away carefully with a soft brush. Wet cleaning does greenery in a scene no good.
