If you go to a pet store that has an aquarium section you can usually
find
a wide assortment of weird looking plastic plants.  I have used several
different kinds as jungle underbrush great effect.  It makes for a nice
variation from the ubiquitous flocked woodland trees and they are fairly
cheap.

And nothing says "I don't think we are in Kansas anymore Funk" than
having
your troops fighting through a forest of giant ferns and 20' high clover
(in 25mm scale of course).
