It makes more sense if you realize that was an Italian Cypress doing the talking.
The first plant sci-fi author was Jules Fern.

A tree is made of determination to adhere to a specific design and then add artistic touches here and there, just like the rest of us.

OK imagine~~~~ you have ingested a psychedelic and are walking through the woods, and you stop and observe a tree and someone one asks:
'what is a tree made of?'
how do you think you would respond?

are you readjusting the frame of reference, or just beside yourself with the actual gravity of the situation?

I would ask, which tree. It is unlikely for me to be in the woods after ingesting a psychedelic, it is likely for me then to be at the edge of the woods. I'd ask, what are we doing in the woods when I prefer the edge of the woods after ingesting psychedelics.

tree is wood. wood is meant to be stable, long-lasting, they are older than most life, save some micro-animals, like the water bear.
wood comes from the nature of evolution. before plants were, i think, (i may need to further research this subject) more fibrous, more or less shell like...as they came from the water...plants then adjusted to the atmosphere, and became more porous.
allowing for great construction materials, and also, an ecology landscape for the environment. holds soil nutrients and composition for further growth and which helps new plant-life to grow.

odd response
so, asking me the question: I would observe and feel the tree to be flowing. NOT seeming static, object-like. So I would be aware just how my consciousness is deeply related to my observation (of course there would be lots of giggling too, because the question would crack me up) I would really see that 'tree' is a tag we use. what is the 'TREE' made of is taking the label an abstraction as being reality. Like when you say 'it' is raining. What is that 'it'
And I like what Jokeshopbeard said: 'love'. I would leave it at 'that'

a tree is also a spiral. that's also what a tree is.
it's not love. unless you mean love as some sort of virus that promotes existence through it's viral nature, but in that case, it's only a part of love.
