If you have a fast CPU and need a tree close up, here is a link to a site that is reasonably priced for an app that works well. I use this regularly for trees in my MAX renders (never tried it with SU yet, due to some sizes)

http://www.treegenerator.com/

Also accepts plugins, some PhotoShop, some Paintshop Pro.
Small, fast, supports practically every image format, even really obscure ones.
