Yes, very realistic - best "landscaping" I've seen in a while. I have to say I'm not a fan of the Eddie Izzard ("Bunch of flowers!") approach to base-related horticulture, with clumps of petunias and what-not littering the place; I find it distracts too much from the figures.

Bit rude calling them cretins, they look alright to me. Funny, crete seems to be where the slouch hat came from.

Baron, I am thinking of having just a few flowers on the rear of my prussian's bases because they all look so similar. But I agree, soldiers prancing through the tulips are a bit improbable.

It's all about the colour, and making your toys look pretty.
