How do I attach the tree to my layout?

The tree typically has a base that can be secured using standard model glues or scenic adhesives suitable for your base material.

How many trees are included in one package?

Is this tree suitable for very young children?

Troubleshooting

Tree is unstable after placement

Ensure the base is adequately secured with appropriate model adhesive. Allow sufficient drying time before handling.

Color appears faded

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store the model in a dark place when not in use.
