alter label colors when using DefaultTreeModel

I have a JPanel with a bunch label and text fields that I organize using the DefaultTreeModel. What I have noticed is I cannot seem to alter the label text in any way. Is the model overriding my settings to things like Forground Colors?

Is there a way to get around this? I wish to make certain label bold or perhaps a different color.

it doesn't use foreground, it uses a property from UIDefaults.... I forget the name of it, but you can get the list of property names from UIManager.getDefaults().whatever the name is and loop thru and print out all the properties. It'll be something like Tree.foreground
