As far as rendering in real time is concerned, PCs, which are several times more powerful than the so-called "HD consoles", aren't even capable of reasonably approximating one tree.

What makes you think they would be anywhere near real life anytime soon if they can't even come remotely close to rendering one tree properly? Even if you remove the leaves and branches they can't come close to rendering a tree.
