BrickList: Brick Built Trees
Brick Built Trees
A list of all sets containing brick-built trees. The goal of this list is to chart the history of brick-built trees in Lego sets over the years. This list excludes Basic Brick buckets and the 'pile of parts' Creator sets that merely suggest trees on the packaging as being possible. Also excluded are Seasonal Christmas tree polybags and the sets containing the segmented palm trees from Classic Pirates.
