Tolkien never mentioned any tree made in the likeness of Laurelin, writing that of Laurelin the Golden no likeness is left in Middle-Earth. In the First Age, however, the Elvish King Turgon of the city of Gondolin did create a non-living image of Laurelin, named Glingal 'Hanging Flame'. Turgon's daughter, Idril Celebrindal, had hair described as as the gold of Laurelin before the coming of Melkor.
