| rdfs:comment | - Basic Trope: Items grow like fruit on trees.
* Played Straight: A tree grows wads of cash instead of fruit clusters.
* Exaggerated:
* Every leaf is a dollar bill.
* Everything in existence grows on trees (literally)
* Inverted: The tree produces nothing out of the ordinary in terms of leaves, flowers, or fruit.
* Justified: A Wizard Did It
* Subverted:
* Money doesn't literally grow on trees...
* Or, this tree doesn't produce anything unusual.
* Double Subverted:
* But the paper it's made from comes from trees.
* But that's because it's out of season.
* Or, another tree does.
* Deconstructed: You Fail Economics Forever; if money literally did grow on trees, it would have very little worth, thus driving up costs.
* Reconstructe

| abstract | - Basic Trope: Items grow like fruit on trees.
* Played Straight: A tree grows wads of cash instead of fruit clusters.

* Or, another tree does.
* Deconstructed: You Fail Economics Forever; if money literally did grow on trees, it would have very little worth, thus driving up costs.
* Reconstructed: Society in this setting is a hippie Mary Suetopia anyway, so there's no need for money anyway; people do favors for one another out of the goodness of their hearts, not in hopes of getting cash in return.
* Lampshaded: "Money doesn't grow on...nevermind."
* Averted:
* Nothing unusual grows on trees.
* No trees in this setting.
* Enforced:
* Invoked: Someone makes a wish for infinite money when they find a genie's lamp and get three wishes.
* Defied: The genie says that won't be possible because of the impact it would have on the economy at large.
* Discussed: "I wish I could just pick wads of cash from a money tree in Real Life!"
* Conversed: "Yeah, but think of the inflation!"
* Played For Laughs: Almost always is.
* Played For Drama: With all this worthless cash lying around, the economy (and thus society) spirals into a depression.
