History

The concept behind Xfrog is to give the user, powerful building blocks of Nature as modeling tools. Rather than draw, loft, extrude, revolve, the user procedurally defines organic forms using sliders.
XfrogPlants, are 30 libraries of popular plants, (2000+ plant models), and are built by botanical experts who gather real leaves and bark and painstakingly match photographic references to derive 3-9 variations of each Species of plants that they model.
The XfrogPlants are in all popular 3d formats and available as individual models, libraries, and bundles of libraries in our online shop.

In XfrogPlants Version 3.0 Landscaping Library vol.1 included:

- Chamaecyparis hedges
This 3D False Cypress (hedges) contains nine highly detailed, fully textured 3D models of the plant at different ages.
Notes: These species are called “false cypresses� because in spite of their look, they do not belong to the Cupressus genus, although they are part of the larger Cupressaceae family. They are mostly coastal species, but can adapt also to inland climates as long as the thermal excursion is not too strong. They become resistant to frost only when they are well grown and established adults. The timber is of high quality and it’s used for works where the reliability and solidity are important for safety.
- Chamaecyparis allumii
This 3D Allumii False Cypress contains nine highly detailed, fully textured 3D models of the plant at different ages.
Notes: The Allumii False-Cypress is a decorative variety of Chamaecyparis that features blue-gray leaves. The growth and environmental characteristics are the same of the main Chamaecyparis species. It does not require particular care and can be pruned at wish.
- Hibiscus
This 3D Hibiscus contains nine highly detailed, fully textured 3D models of the plant at different ages.
Notes: The Hibiscus is a small tree or shrub of Asian origin. It is not known anymore in it’s wild state. The species has been used for centuries if not even thousands of years as a gardening species in the Eastern Asia for the beauty of it’s flowering. Today is it popular worldwide as it decorates the homes and gardens all over the world. It is produced in a variety of flower colors and there is even a multicolored species.
- Forsythia
This 3D Forsythia contains nine highly detailed, fully textured 3D models of the plant at different ages.
Notes: Forsythia became known to the western world in the XVIII century. It was named in honor of William Forysth, director of the Chelsea Physic Garden. It has soon become a very popular gardening species because of it’s spectacular yellow flowering, which is one of the earliest and announces the arrival of Spring. It can and should be pruned often to encourage a bushy habit and to increase the production of flowers.
- Ligustrum ovalifolium var. Aureum
This 3D Golden Privet contains nine highly detailed, fully textured 3D models of the plant at different ages.
Notes: The Golden Privet is a semi-evergreen species, meaning that it usually keeps it’s green foliage all over the year, but during severely cold winters, or along the coasts, it can lose part of all of it's foliage in the winter season. The species is much appreciated in gardening because it endures pruning well and the color of the leaves is very showy. The species is toxic for humans and can cause health problems if ingested.
- Ligustrum vulgare
This 3D Common Privet contains nine highly detailed, fully textured 3D models of the plant at different ages.
Notes: The Common Privet is one of the most diffused shrubby species of the Mediterranean maquis and scrubland, especially in the Central and Eastern Mediterranean. It thrives in the full sun. The name Ligustrum comes from the habit of Mediterranean populations to use the flexible branches to bind (“ligare� in Latin) things. In spite of the Southern origin it is a frost-resistant species and is widely used today all over the world for gardening as it makes excellent and good looking hedges and bushes.
