  I have a few sets in store that may suit your requirements.

  These sets feature mesh based plants.

  A trick to help with the long render times...use the omnifreaker UberSurface/UberSurface 2 shader on the plants and use the Occlusion overide setting on the leaves/flowers/transmapped parts to sat it to that is more 'widespread'/less detailed (higher number).

  depends on what you want to render, there is a Bamboo set here at daz that is I think totally without opacity maps. I have it and it renders fast.

  Predatrons silver birch trees also renders very fast, also with ray traced and shadow bias at 0.1 or lower

  Most of Predatron's more recent plants sets are geometry-only, without transmaps. They are, as a result, somewhat heavy in the scene and can make the workspace a little sluggish, depending on your RAM and video card, but definitely worth it, especially for 3Delight.
