Why would she take care of a tree that she would never be allowed to enjoy the fruits of?

I'd have burned the tree down if I thought some other people would periodically pop round to steal fruit. That's just weird.

Can't you grow a tree at your new house? I'm sure you could pick a mature one up at the garden centre.
