You're welcome, though I'll note that I wasn't sure offhand either ;)
... I tried the Multicolor first, too, and then Vert, and then asked
the other herald in the house "trees proper is no difference from
trees vert, right?", and then one of us checked.

> Changing from 1 to 3: "Argent, three trees eradicated proper within a bordure nebuly sable" seems clear.  I see 2 DC's versus "Argent, three oak trees gules, a bordure sable." (Isabeau of the Wylde Woode, Device, Jan 1991) and "Argent, three trees eradicated sable." (Roana d'Evreux, Device, Sep 2001) for changes to tincture of the trees and the complex line of the bordure.
> Changing the field: Or doesn't work because of "Or, a crequier vert." (Orlando dei Medici, Device, Aug 2003), but "Ermine, a tree eradicated proper within a bordure nebuly sable" seems clear.  The closest I found was "Ermine, a tree blasted and a chief wavy sable" (Barony of Myrkewoode, Arms, Jan 1973) with DC's for change to tincture of the tree and type oif peripheral.

All of these sound like lovely period armory.
