How's this:

from itertools import chain

def treeify(seq):
    if seq:
        return list(chain(*([x] + treeify(seq[1:]) for x in seq[0])))
    else:
        return []

>>> treeify([['A0', 'A1', 'A2'], ['B0', 'B1', 'B2'], ['C0', 'C1', 'C2']])
['A0', 'B0', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2', 'B1', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2', 'B2', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2',
 'A1', 'B0', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2', 'B1', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2', 'B2', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2',
 'A2', 'B0', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2', 'B1', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2', 'B2', 'C0', 'C1', 'C2']

 -[]z.
