should all attributes be settable?

nice use of .let. in rails apps, you'll often see use of a library like factory_bot for building factories to use in test. there are also fixture libraries that are popular.

looks great but i'd recommend using contexts here to have a clear happy vs unhappy path. it also improves readability. contexts can also be nested.
describe Tree do
it 'has a particular attribute' do
...
end
context 'when alive' do
it '..' do
end
end
context 'when dead' do
it '..' do
end
end
end

@age += 1 is the shorthand equivalent.
BTW, I appreciate that it doesn't continue to age after it has died. 👍

The ternary here is redundant. @apples.length >= 1 already returns true or false.
@apples.any? should do the trick, too.
Update tests
Remove unnecessary ternary operator

@jaybobo This test suite might not be covering all cases, but I wanted to get your feedback on how I'm writing tests vs best practices, and checking if I'm missing something major
