People are calling this a strictly worse rampant growth, but really in a constructed format it'd be almost strictly better. Theoretically you'd pick out your land art so most of each type you use (but not all) have trees. Then it's a rampant growth 99% of the time with an option to put the card in your hand if you like.
I imagine you can't bring a forest to hand though, which is unfortunate.

Check out the thread for my cube if you have the time, and tell me how terrible it is.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)
But more seriously, this is where my obsession with collecting basic lands comes through. (And for the record, there are even forests with no trees. *cough*Mirrodin*cough* But there are trees on every basic land type as well, if you know where to look.)
I suppose it depends on how you define something in the art as a tree. Every Mirrodin, Scars, Besieged, and New Phyrexia basic forest has something at least vaguely tree-shaped in the art, even if they aren't actually wooden trees. On the other hand, there are some forests, including one BFZ one that I don't know how to link, that have lots of greenery that could be trees, yet no full trees in the art due to scale/perspective.
At Common this might be somewhat of a nightmare when people actually draft the set.
How you can tell if your LGS is going one step beyond: They have two land boxes for Un3 drafts: Trees and No Trees.
Otherwise be ready for a mad dash for the land piles during deck construction.
