Thanks for your comments and sorry for my late reply
The used materials are mostly natural. The tree is a box branch supplemented with finer branches, which are wire bits glued, and the famous birch seeds as leaves glued one by one. The roots are just tiny pieces of branches, and the dried herb is "see foam" (?, a sort of alga found in beaches, like a ball of yarn).
The green bits are artificial: Kamizukuri laser cut paper leaves, mininatur leaves and other railway stuff I can't remember the name, everything painted in suitable (not bright) greens. I think the trick is to be very patient and lay all the elements almost one by one.
