Unhappy Modelling a plant

Hello there! I'm new to this and relatively new to Lightwave. I am currently modelling a lounge/sitting room for a QVTR and have been searching for a model of a plant in a pot. Something like a palm or similar. All the free models on the net seem to be for 3DS. Can anyone help?

If they're for 3ds and in .obj format, you can import them into LW.

You may want to look for a plugin called Treecage which allows you to create a wide variety of types of plants. I use it for my trees and bushes, along with a few others.

I know Dosch design has a plants disc, I think, but they're rather pricy.

Not sure of any others. Have you searched the content included with LW? I've been surprised what I've found in there sometimes too hehe.

Not sure if you have had any luck with your search yet. I found a few potted plant meshes available free here. They are in LW format
