Thank you for sharing this, Whitefeather.
I want to point out that in Middle Eastern culture, trees that bare fruit have great signifcance to an extent which is not commonly known today.
It is said that each type of plant (mainly big trees with fruits) invite spirits to reside beneath them. For an example, a pommegranate tree has a different spirit than a vine tree. I am not well informed in the subject but i do know that you can communicate with those spirits. I will look into the subject and come back with more.
I think that you might be hearing the voices of these spirits and not the plants themselves. Though, i heard that some people consider part of those spirits to be negative.
Just like in Feng Shui, placement and positioning has great importance. Planting a vine tree infront of your doorstep could be good while planting a Loquat tree could be bad. Proportionatly ofcourse.
I believe that the Japanese have similar ideas in their Shinto religion.
I will come back with more, i hope.
Peace.
