I think that the simplest solution is to use an union e.g:

select  PRD.product_code      ,PRD.product_name      ,NULL::int            AS production_no
,PTT.stock_code_to_make_product     ,PTT.amount
 
from  product PRD    ,product_tree_template PTT
where 1 = 1
AND PRD.product_code = PTT.product_code
UNION
select  PRD.product_code      ,PRD.product_name      ,PTS.production_no      ,PTS.stock_code_to_make_product
,PTS.amount
from  product PRD    ,product_tree_special  PTS
where 1 = 1
AND PRD.product_code = PTS.product_code
ORDER BY 1,2,4


I've added an order by the columns 1,2 and 4 (just guessing),
note that this particular solution uses positional ordering, i.e no 
column names.
