Own your tree somewhere in the world

Hi!
I recently thought of a crazy idea!
Build a site called for example www.treetastic.com which means it's about trees and it is fantastic :)
On the site you offer people to buy a real tree which is going to be planted somewhere on your land.
All you need is at least 10000 square meters of free land near a wood. Set up a webcam near that place and plant trees with signs next to each tree.
Customer goes to your website and buys a tree for umm about 100$ (maybe 1000)? You go to the nearby wood pick up the right little tree and plant it in front of the web camera and leave for the rest of customers life ;) Trees are not flowers - you only need to water it once and it will grow for a 100 years.
Let's say some percentage of money goes for some planet tree saving project, some for the webcam and gas to drive to that planting place.

If it's too costly i think it's possible not to have webcamera, but just upload pictures regularly, though webcam would be a lot better...

Comment if you have any thoughts on this ;)

P.S. If there is something similar or exactly like this in the world, I haven't found it, I looked on google a bit. If this is a unique idea, I should be considered the owner of it, and someone can realise it only with my consent.

P.P.S. 07.05.07. I just found on google that treetastic appears to be some kind of air freshner :) Funny I didn't care to check this when I came up with the name...
