I remember reading an old sci-fi novel about a specific type of alien ancient sentient tree… The Leaves of October.
It was… Okay. More of a collection of short stories around the central theme. Still interesting, though. Haven’t thought about that book in decades!

“A Monster Calls” has a very similar premise. Mother, Child, and physic Tree.
I strongly recommend it.
