In the Apocrypha, childhood Jesus got mad at another kid and turned him into a tree.
Now, I’m not saying they’re the same tree. But I am saying I can do whatever I want in my own headcanon.

2 And when Jesus saw what was done, he was wroth and said unto him: O evil, ungodly, and foolish one, what hurt did the pools and the waters do thee? behold, now also thou shalt be withered like a tree, and shalt not bear leaves, neither root, nor fruit.
