This is something that struct me before as I was enjoying the Japanese Hanami (having a picnic under flowering trees) festival, and I once attempted to verify whether my understanding was correct, but unfortunately my Google-fu failed me at the time, since a "tree" happens to have a troubling double-meaning as a tree of clades in phylogeny, or as a physical tree; so it's very hard to search whether "physical trees form a phylogenic tree". Glad to have that verification now.
