If you were to be a tree, what type of tree would you be?

[SparklingSquirrels 21,348]

I would be a palm tree. I love the ocean, and many palm trees grow in tropical areas near the ocean. I find palm trees to be really pretty as well.

I'd be a Prunus tree.

 

 

They're so beautiful and colorful! Some of them are cultivated for their cherries and peaches. They are usually found in colder temperatures, which are my favorites~T here are pink Prunus trees and white Prunus trees. I'd choose to be a pink one, so I could have cherry blossoms!

 

Also, I have no idea what I'm talking about. 

[swordsman 192]

I would be the kind of tree you would make useful things out of. I would be a bamboo forest  or a  zebrawood tree or a Jurai Royal Tree.

I would have to agree with you sir, I had no idea what I was talking about when I made this either, so don't worry! It is quite common to know what you are talking about, and what you are not talking about. my dear friend.

 

But this is just a thread for some random thing I though of. Mainly about trees and such, but whatever. It just lifted my day when I saw made this, and am really glad that it got so many replies to it! 

 

Mainly because that I have never had a thread go on like this!

[Jokuc 8,174]

wow I didn't know that one of the oldest trees in the world at like 9550 years is in Sweden..

Anyways I think I would be an Oak actually

 

[PurpleBit 8]

I'd be a marshmallow blossom tree because they are oh so pretty and make me happy on the inside and I really like looking at them and gathering up all the leaves and throwing them at my brother and screaming "I crown you the king of the fairies".

[Acoustic Cloud 2,202]

 

I would love to be a grand Oak, standing stolid somewhere over a field, providing shade for the country folk.
Yes the life of a tree, I'd love to be, but such a life can never be achieved.
In the breeze my leaves rustle so free. Birds in my wake, sheltering the meek like these.
And until I grow old and return to the soil, I'll sit there and wait through the days.
And as time passes by I weather it through. Through cool autumn and freezing winters too.
Time and time again I return where I was, just as strong as before.
From seed to trunk I will be waiting, just waiting... for what is in store.

(I seriously wrote this poem on the spot, x3 so don't judge it harshly. I didn't even mean to write a poem, it just sorta happened.)

[ReverseFaller 2,483]

I would be a fluttershy-tree!

 

If I had to pick a real tree, I'd pick a Japanese Cherry Blossom tree because they look cool in my opinion.

[Silverhoof 2,844]

I would be an ent like Treebeard, so I could move around herding legions of killer trees.

And then I could flip out and tear down castles, and stomp on orcs.

[Iron Shield 88]

I'd be a Red Maple.

 

Stout buds, smooth bark, moderately heavy, hard and strong wood, thrives on a variety of soils, moderately shade tolerant. Barks turns blue when ferric salts applied.

 

I've got the sweetness of maple syrup.

I'd be a weeping willow. I've always loved how they look. I wish we had one in our yard (although it's way to small for a tree like that.)

[Teh Silly Luna 45]

You know, I've seen a LOT of different trees here, and out of all of the trees that everypony has said they would like to be, I can't really decide to which one is the one I think that is the best one. 

 

They're all really awesome trees, and interesting/intriguing ones out there, but I guess it is by your own opinion for which one you think is best.

[Teh Silly Luna 45]

Do not worry, we can all pretend to see one, or we can all find a yard big enough and plant a tree we wish we had.

 

Or, we can just go to our local park, ask for permission first before you do it, and plant that tree somewhere in a place where it will be good to grow at, and take care of it over the years, and watch it grow!

[Dark Moon 965]

Puny mortals, I would be Populus tremuloides tree, which is a clonal tree. I would have the possibility of surviving tens of thousands of years. Basically clonal colonies are basically a huge colony of trees that all share the same root system. So basically it is one organism.

[K.K. Slider 391]

 

 

 

I'd be the largest, smelliest, most admired tree in the whole field. Propagating thousands upon thousands of seeds, to be spread all over the world by puny humans!

[Starshine 16,334]

Tree of Eternity from Warcraft 3

 

With the ability to create my of wisps that can create many many sentient trees that can in turn support a whole race of nocturnal magic elves, I would be able to sustain my own whole ecosystem and be fat until the end of time.

[Onylex 2,837]

Well thats easy, I would totally be an apple tree.

 

Why would you I be an apple tree you ask?

 

So that applejack would buck me every apple bucking season. XD

[Red Star~ 158]

I'd be a bonsly! That counts as a tree right?

 

 

Why? Because he's a tree, AND he walks, AAAAAaaaand he says 'bonsly'! What's not to like? And plus I'm super adorable~

[Sapphire Quill 1,186]

Great Deku Tree of course, I've always been the Zelda fanboy, and that tree is amazing, and the look of it is funny, I don't know why I picked it, but it works doesn't it?

I shame myself for not thinking of this one. Nice choice! But don't you die? Well, unless you're talking about the one who emerges after the first one dies, then you're good to go~

 

Btw, it's tree-stache is absolutely dashing!

Everything must die at a point so I really don't mind which I am, I'd of lived the life anyway.

And As Nigel Thornberry would say, It's Smashing!

Oh well of course everything dies. But I meant it gets poisoned if I remember correctly. But judging by it's size, the Great Deku Tree had about  a few centuries going before meeting it's demise. I mean, you get to meet the Hero of Time. I'd be a tree for that!

 

And of course~

Smashing~

Yes Of course, that's why I feel like it's a good choice, no matter how you die, If you've had a good life, why look at that moment?

Also, That gif is very interesting, thank you, goes in my collection.

I don't think a tree sees apple bucking the same way you do... Imagine if a very honest yet freakishly strong tree with a cowboy hat kicked you in the chest and then proceeded to extract your teeth, as is the tradition during "teeth bucking season"does that sound hot to you?

 Its only a joke, it was just a play on words. I didn't mean it in a real or serious way. I wouldn't actually want anypony or anybody to kick me that would really hurt.
