Hmmm... The form you used is not the basic form. It's like saying "one
hundred and one", not "one houndred one".
The correct forms are:

1 - jedno drzewo
2 - dwa drzewa
5 - pięć drzew
11 - jedenaście drzew
12 - dwanaście drzew
101 - sto jeden drzew
102 - sto dwa drzewa
105 - sto pięć drzew

Polish is pretty complicated ;)
