Resized trees with the originals
1. Midbiscus series:
- Seasons-friendly shrubs in fours sizes, based on meshes by HystericalParoxysm. They have new GUIDs and do not overwite HP's.
- A smaller and a large version of the Midbiscus tree
- Three recolours based on HP's recolours in the thread linked above
2. Japanese maple: a dwarf and a large version, and a pink-purple recolour
3. Willow tree: a smaller version and a greener recolour
4. Bay tree: a smaller version and a purple recolour.
All trees are visible from neighbourhood view, and all except the willow occupy just one tile.
Note: Obviously, the seasonal changes only appear if Seasons is installed. The plants can also be used without Seasons, though: in that case only the summer state will appear.
Feel free to use the recolours to make more seasons-friendly recolours. Notes.
Many thanks to HystericalParoxysm for her liberal policy and to Echo for the tutorial.
(Pics show the original trees as well)

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
