trees are quite easy to do once you get the trick right.

just model out the stump and branches,

make some small planes or boxes on the tip of the branches.

texture the plane or boxes with greens(leaves) and full black, add a transparency cull for black,

move around some vertices so it looks natural

callapse it all as one model and there you go, a low poly tree...

Well in a game I play, what they do is model the main trunk, then make plains going off the side slanted and at different angles and such and texture them with a bunch of leaves. Looks good actually Ill try to get a shot

If you downloaded Operation Invasion Evasion, feel free to use the trees from that.
