A local park ranger I know likes to remark that our state tree is a grass. (I'm in Florida.)
But I'd say that's also inaccurate. IMO, grasses are in the family Poaceae, and palms are in the family Arecaceae. I guess one could remark that our state tree is a commelinid...but I don't think tourists would get as much of a kick out of that.

I think it's arguable that "tree" is just a term for a growth habit rather than anything really taxonomically meaningful.
How many social credit points do I lose if I refer to bamboo products as "wood" outside of botany nerd circles?
Isn't that just "hosed"?
Talk about invasive species!

Time to post one of my favorite songs:
("Da Coconut Nut", by Ryan Cayabyab. This version is probably the one performed by his group, Smokey Mountain.)
This song reminds us that the coconut is not a nut; it is the fruit of the cocopalm.

Your mentioning using stuff from tlieset packs (which I presume you made) actually made me wonder about something -- I'm definitely not a skilled visual artist myself, but I do have various very well-made asset packs that I've picked up over the years (mainly due to the giant bundles on itch.io), so maybe I could actually try stitching a scene together from them sometime. Could be a fun way to spend an hour or two when bored, and I could do something with these purchases while also being able to show off the work of a variety of pixel artists to friends.
