Hi,
from your answers I gather that you're approaching this with a certain
amount of youthful enthusiasm that could lead to problems. It is good
that you're discussing your plans so we can iron them out before you
actually do anything.

4) how you will prevent duplication with existing trees-- code makes
sure that no two trees at the same GPS can be added
You will have to make sure that the tree to be added is not already in OSM.
I do not think that the GPS position alone is good enough to add a tree;
it is very likely that if you do that, you will add trees in buildings
and in the middle of roads. I think that it will be necessary for the
user, when they take the photo of the tree, to also manually move a
marker on the map to the correct location.
Doing this, if the map is OSM, will put your location data under ODbL.
5) which tags will be used-- species, genus, maybe height, image of
tree, maybe wikipedia tree about species, tree type (broadleaf versus not)
Are species and genus user-specified or will you be trying to determine
those automatically from the photo? If the latter, I would advise against.
How do you intend to upload the "image of tree" to OSM?
Best
Frederik
