Can you immagine how handy would be to be able to resize the plants and rocks we already have? Especially make them smaller would allow a whole new level of realism and freedom. Immagin for example a rainforest, it would really allow us to make realistic overgrown exhibits without the need of new elements. Would you like it?
Scale the size of Plants and Rocks

Sure...I would like it to resize all kinds of objects, this could also reduce the amount of objects we need.....but it will not happen.
I think it would be an option for future frontier games, as this might need a update of their game engine.
And besides the engine and gui , you would also need an overhaul of your objects and their parameters.
So for planet zoo....yes I'm certain we won't get it.
EDIT:
btw while I still would like to have some more variations and sizes(maybe 5-6 instead of 3) within the plants/trees, I combined so far trees to shape new ones:

I would absolutely love it. This would make everything so much more realistic. I bet no Zoo or Botanical Garden that isn't in a tropical Climate has such big Kapok Trees. It's annoying when you need to make your Building higher or to dig deeper into the Ground just because of a Tree. I think it would be possible because as far as I remember the Demo Version of Prehistoric Kingdom that sadly isn't available anymore, had a great Tool to resize Plants and Rocks. But I think some Plants could maybe become unclimbable if you make them too small
Hm, modular trees should be possible with the game.
So for each kind of tree, variations of the trunk, some blank branches and some with leaves. Every part with it's biome, region and coverage parameters.
( Ok, maybe the audience for this features is simply to small...and it would lead those stupid detail freaks to squeeze even more objects in a park....I would love it)

You are right but I think that maybe adding variants would cost much more than resize the ones we already have, all the plants we already have would be of size 1 for example, but we could work with a paramrter from 0.5 to 2 for example, I don't know. Actually I would love smaller plants
I would love this, but not only limited to plants and rock, I would love to see this for every item in game. There are so many times when i want to use an item, but it is either way to big or way to small
Would really help with my Park Entrance. I wanted 4 small Gates and a big Gate in the Middle but because there isn't a half Archway Piece in the Set I've used, I do currently only have two normal Archways hanging there as Placeholder, so currently the Entrance Gate looks like a Advertisement for McDonald's. With a Tool like that, I could just resize a normal Archway and my Problem would be solved. It would also help with so much other Stuff
Yes, some items are way to big (like the beautiful classic iron gates) or way to small (like the classic white fence - and we could use a bigger clock) or missing completely (like 2m wide halfwalls, or many of the archway-pieces) or just fitting in size but not colourable and therefor not fitting at all. Resizing would be very cool, but I don't think it is possible. It would help, if we could at least have a choice between "small", "medium" and "large" with the most pieces and of cause please make every item recolourable! It's a pain when you have the just one piece that would fit, but it is an indian piece and you can't colour it matching the classic theme.
I wish they would have the same resizing bug like in The Sims 4 
have those smaller plants to use like regular plants
