I am not a biologist and this definitely surprised me. I always thought that plants and trees were in a constant struggle to see who could grow the tallest and get more leaf surface area facing the sun to get the most resources. The fact that these trees aren't completely selfish is what surprises me.

Yeah, that's what I was taught in school, on biology lessons - trees competing for sunlight.
