The heteroclite pl. δένδρη occurs in P Hal I. 1.99 (c. B.C. 250), where it is laid down that one who plants an olive or a fig-tree must do it 9 ft. from his neighbour’s boundary, τ [ὰ δ᾽ ἄλλα δένδρη πέντε [πό ]δας . So in Syll 802.121 (iii/B.C.) where a blind man ";incubating"; in the Asclepieum dreamed that the god pulled his eyes open with his fingers, καὶ ἰδεῖν τὰ δένδρη πρᾶτον τὰ ἐν τῶι ἱαρῶι : the resemblance in language to Mark 8:24 may be noted. The same inscr. tells of a man who fell ἀπὸ τοῦ δένδρεος (l..91—he had climbed ἐπὶ δένδρεόν τι in l..90) : Attic preserved the dat. pl. δένδρεσι . Perhaps by fusion of δένδρεον and δένδρος (neut.) the regular δένδρον arose, which is normal in Hellenistic. Thus Syll 535.16 (Boeotian—late iv/B.C.) τὰ δένδρα ὅσ᾽ ἂν εἶ ἐν τῶι χωρίωι , ib. 532.13 (Ionic—early iv/B.C.) δένδρα ἕμερα μὴ κόπτεν —";tame"; trees are the opposite of ";wild";—, ib. 790.73 (i/B.C.), etc. It is needless to quote papyri for the word. MGr δέντρο , also δεντρί (i.e. δενδρίον ) and diminutive δεντράκι .
