And now I'm trying to figure out what an apple tree cloaca would look like.

Yeah, don't go down that path.

Roots; the answer is roots.

Sorry for whatever you stumbled on.

Fun fake fact: Owls are the guardians of tree cloacas. Also if an apple had recently been laid, there would be some residual sauce around the edges. Delicious!
