I'm kinda too lazy to calculate this myself at the moment, but does anyone know how old this guy is? I haven't read Tree's Roots since it released, but that novella gave me the impression that he's around the same age as Dovewing and Ivypool?

According to the events timeline on the wiki, he was born roughly a year before Alderheart and Sparkpelt were born and is about a season older that Hollytuft, Sorrelstripe, and Fernsong.

According to the wiki, he's four years old. He, his sisters, and Stream were born at around the same time DW/CT takes place.

I didn’t think to check the wiki for some reason.

The man met his mother-in-law without realizing. I mean, now that this thread question seems to be answered, I'm unable to get over the fact that Tree literally spoke to Pebbleshine in her (otherwise boring) novella while she was pregnant with his future mate Violetshine (totally forgot about that for some reason). I lowkey like/don't mind VioletTree as a pairing but that's kinda wild. How much older is he than her then? At least a year or two, right?

Honestly, the only thing that bothers me about their pairing is how he met his mother in law...While she was pregnant...With his future wife

Most likely, Tree was a little over 6 moons during his novella and Pebbleshine gave birth shortly after like a few days/weeks, so Tree would be 6-8 moons older than Violetshine at least.

(IMO) Tree is way too old for Violetshine! (based on A Warrior's Spirit):
In Chapter 6 (p63) of PK, Pebbleshine meets Tree and he is shown to be a capable fighter. IIRC (based on some other book), this isn't the first time Tree would have been mentioned (in relation to Pebbleshine). He definitely has met Pebbleshine, and not as a kitten, nor of a young apprentice's age.
In Chapter 7 (p149) of TR, Tree tells Root that he's 6, almost 7 moons old. He spends 2 moons with Root (Ch8, p158), making him almost 9 moons old. He then spends 8 moons on his own before he meets Pebbleshine (Ch9,p166), and he notes when he first sees Pebbleshine (p167) that it would be about half a moon before she would give birth. This would make Tree 18 moons old by the time Violetshine would be born (the age of a young warrior). By the time Violetshine should be of a warrior age (12 moons old), Tree would be 30 moons old. Tree is, at most, a year-and-a-half older than Violetshine.

Pretty sure Tree’s age was one of those things that got weirdly retconned. When he shows up in AVoS I seem to remember him being described as pretty young, and thus not much older than Violetshie.
The retcon def makes it creepy. They were into each other when she was still an apprentice, when he was well into adulthood (2.5yr). That’s worse that DustxFern.
