Makes sense if you take the apostrophe out of tree's.

Loads of people seem to think that 's is the standard way of pluralising a noun. Mostly those who have never willingly read a single book in their lives.

I love reading books and try to read as much as I can. Reading hasn't helped my spelling or grammer which can be really pathetic at times. Not everyone has a great education and there is no need to embarass someone over it.

Some things in English can be tricky, no doubt.


Knowing that trees is the plural of tree doesn't fall into that category, or anywhere close.

Always imagined mine was fine but Ms Jock pointed out my misuse of "it's" recently.

Point being, "it's" quite (or is it "quiet"? ) possible to believe you're doing a spiffing job when that is not in fact the case!
