There is a tutorial on making pine trees in the articals. Not sure about other trees.
ice cream cone trees: http://www.cakecentral.com/article55-Ice-Cream-Cone-Trees-Great-for-Christmas-Cakes.html
saw something similar using pretzel rod for trunk and then glued on pretzel sticks for branches.

I'm not sure who I saw this cake from, but they used tootsie rolls as the tree trunks, then I think royal for the greens. I have also seen people use green spearment leaves for the leaves (those jelly ones). HTH.
