Hello! I’m new to Unity and me and my friend are trying to make a game together. We’ve done good so far, but today i occured a problem. When i try to place a tree/alot of trees with terrain editor nothing happens. This is really annoying. I’ve tried to look up alot of different stuff to fix this, but nothing works. If someone could help me that would be much appriciated. Thanks!

1For a basic palm tree, do what Jacob said and grab the ‘Terrain Assets Package’. Since you are new to Unity I assume you also might not know how to import new packages. If so read on, if you have done that skip to following paragraph. To import, click on the top of the hierarchy of the assets, the root, so in my case ‘Assets’. Then right click in the Project/Assets pane to ‘Import Package’ and then browse to ‘Terrain Assets’. It will do the rest for you.
After you have imported the new asset package go to the folder called ‘Trees Ambient-Occlusion’ and inside of it should be a palm tree. Simply drag it from the asset window and bring it into the scene. I’m not sure if you need a terrain or not, but if so make a simple plane that begins at the origin and expands for however far you want it to be. Eventually though you will want to use actual terrains 
You ought to try it out first with the built in Terrain package. You add a tree in the Terrain tool from the package and paint away.
