Bothour al-nabataat Al-modghilah

The second sentence can be translated as follows:
Bothour al-ashjaar (kal-jawz, al-fakiha,al-thimaar al-lubbiyah Ila-akhirihi), Bothour al-shojairaat,Bothour al-toffah, Bothour al-ijaas,bothour al-moshmosh. You can write the word bothour once only, otherwise the sentence sounds dull.

"Woody plants" are considered actually as thick trees that grow in the forest or the jungle.
Al-modghila is the best word you can use to describe the trees that grow in the woods.

All the best

Woody plants are vascular plants characterized by a supporting, water conducting tissue called "xylem" (from the Greek word "xylon," which means "wood," and which is the root of such words as "xylophone" and "xylography").
