Hi Philip,
your data are event times because you're monitoring the same trees in
each plot over time, the event being death of a tree.
Therefore methods from survival analysis are more appropriate.
Start out having a look at the package survival, possibly considering
a Cox model with adjustment for clusters or with strata (the function
coxph()) or a parametric model using the function survreg().
