A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

trees are already 4-12 years old when planted, i guess that margin of error wont matter as much for really old trees
What is a tree before it turns 4-12 years old?
Sapling
Saplings aren't trees?
They are tiny trees!
Which go unplanted for 4-12 years?
In the same way all children cease to exist at 18 years old
Oh! That's where I went!
They grow in soil, sometimes pots and sometimes in tree farms. but when a sapling is delivered for landscaping it is planted at the final location where it will be. They are referring to the point where a 4-12 tree sapling raised for landscaping is planted in the final location.
The terms seedling and sapling are used in almost all contexts similar to how puppy and kitten are used for that stage of their lives.
I bet the LLM was referring to the point at which the tree is planted though
What even is a tree?
A 4-12 year old sapling.
If I understand my preacher right, saplings and seeds are trees even before they've been planted, and anyone who says otherwise works for satan.
Who?
By that logic, a woman or man is as old as their current age minus the age they stopped being a child (or maybe baby). That's generally not how age works.
correct, the meme logic is wrong, that's why you need to account for the time it was on a pot
what do you call it when you put the seed in the pot if not "planting"?
seeding or seed starting
