A break down of each addon.
1. Vegetation blender addon
2. Nisarga
3. Botaniq
4. Alpha Trees
Alpha tree is different from the rest of the addons in that, the trees are not trees made from geometry but simply a plane with a texture of a tree with alpha channel hence the name. Thought sounds like a simple concept its actually a very effective one and Alpha trees handles it so well, that its quite difficult to tell the difference and most of the times it would not even matter. if your PC cant handle hundreds of polygons Alpha trees is the best option you got
5. grass blade
6 Scatter 5.2
the scatter addon is unique in this list, not only does it have a massive library of vegetation but it can be used in conjunction with the other addons to scatter plants in your scene/
