The question I have in mind is whether the benefits justify the price of these trees. Something tells me that these are not your average cherry trees. Aside from cosmetics, the amount of food it generates and the experience is also higher than the regular cherry tree. I have not bought a cherry tree yet since Im also quite short on them horseshoes but some of my neighbors have the Liberty Trees already.
It would have been great if Zynga had included a harvest time,XP gain and food to these trees so that those who are in a horseshoe budget can really scrutinize if its really worth spending 15 horseshoes each. It could also mean that this is one of those Frontierville Luxury Items which is made for the sole purpose of bragging.
