“But when his horse had put its hoof
Into a rabbit-hole
He dropped upon his head and died.
His lady saw it all
And dropped and died thereon, for she
Loved him with her soul.
O my dear, O my dear.
The chambermaid lived long, and took
Their graves into her charge,
And there two bushes planted
That when they had grown large
Seemed sprung from but a single root
So did their roses merge.
O my dear, O my dear.”
The “Three Bushes” by William Butler Yeats.
While I am hardly as prosaic as Yeats, like all good war gamers I am always looking for those items that might be of use for terrain items.
This weekend I was dragged through Spotlight” by “She Who Must be Obeyed” looking for new linen for our “crash pad” when I can across these wonderful items.

Designed for florist arrangements I immediately saw the potential as “three scenic bushes”. They are a bit mono colour but a light spray can with a few other colours will make them pop.
I also came across this:

Isn’t it awesome. One side shows up more brown the other more green. I do not know what I will use it for but it has to have a use somewhere on my tabletop.
When they are ready for gaming with I show you how they turned out!!
