Suggestions for jungle setting?

I have an upcoming project which is sort of a Tarzan fight scene taking place deep in the jungle. I have plenty of elements for the ground, but we're also kicking around the idea of part of the fight taking place among the high branches of the trees. Nothing in my current runtime can accommodate that, but I thought, before applying my usual method (throwing money at products that look like they might work, maybe), I'd try asking the forum to see if anyone has a suggestion as to what would work for that.

For something to take place high in the branches, you of course need lots of branches and vines. These products would probably work well:

Rainforest jungle:

Note: for the above product, you need the supporting sets:

https://www.daz3d.com/rpc-volume-5-jungle-rainforest-2-for-daz-studio-and-vue
Depending on your environment, either combination should give you some good quality elements to create your scene.
Also consider SHRINKING the Actors to get relatively Large trees. Also the https://www.daz3d.com/strings has poseable "tarzan" swinging vines for looks or actual use.
Thank you for all of the great suggestions!
If you have Terradome 3 and Forest PrimeEvil 1 here is the Scene Subset for this scene.
(Right click on the link and use Save Linked Content As and save it to your library.)
It is all the plants from that bundle as a group and I used Ultra Scatter at 5000 for the base and 3000 for the hills to scatter the group. If you have Ultra Scatter you can change the settings to suit.
