Hmm, I am interested in the worldbuilding here.
[SPOILER WARNING I GUESS, I really don't think this is necessary]
So basically, froot box has a monopoly on fruit trees, and they are somehow a secret from all society. Only a few select people in the company know about fruit trees, which would explain why no one notices the fruit tree growing right to the side, they just dismiss it as a normal tree! Quite cool!
The tree grows and eventually gives fruit, either people recognize the fruit but are too scared to try or they don't recognize it (implying froot box sells them in a different, processed look)
Then, with the Revolution of the Cherry, the company realizes it and destroys that tree, but the damage is already done. Two things could happen: People plant in their backyards and share seeds secretly for years to come! (or) People boycott the company and it goes in shambles, destroying the monopoly and allowing more people to sell and share fruits!
One thing I find very cool is the fact Pippa's trees grow in but a mere year! She really did study hard, a genius! She decreased the time in 5-10 times depending on the species of cherry tree!
PS: I think this is the origin of Kitty, the dog :D (Konayachi's icon)
