Sounds interesting but I'm pretty skeptical. Planting trees in an environment that lacks liquid water doesn't sound practical- everything I've read about terraforming Mars suggests starting with microbes and waiting anywhere from a few years to a couple of centuries. I think trying to transplant something as big as a tree, or even a houseplant for that matter, is a bit too ambitious given how little we know.
