Actually....
The idea of "planeting" a tree, i.e. imbedding it in the Earth, is kind of cool. Has sort of a "Gaea" feel to it.
Nothing like standing next to a tree that was "planeted" over 2,000 years ago to put some perspective in your outlook. I spent a long time looking at the "General Sherman" tree a few years back.
Note that the huge branch seen partway up the tree fell off last winter. The branch, mother of all "widow-makers," was bigger than most normal trees. Fortunately, nobody was around at the time.
