Operation: Tree-Ectomy
Six words have had their trees removed. The trees have been placed into Group A. The remaining letters of each word have been placed into Group B. Your task is to reconstitute the words by merging each tree with the proper set of letters. Other than merging the two groups together, there is no rearranging of the letters. Example: sand + pne = spanned (SpANneD).
Group A: cedar, elm, maple, pine, spruce, willow
Group B: bda, dfer, inniy, iplab, mionon, sltr
Group A: cedar, elm, maple, pine, spruce, willow
Group B: bda, dfer, inniy, iplab, mionon, sltr
Answer
cedar + inniy = incendiary (inCEnDiARy)elm + bda = bedlam (bEdLaM)
maple + iplab = impalpable (iMpAlPabLE)
pine + sltr = splinter (sPlINtEr)
spruce + mionon = mispronounce (miSPRonoUnCE)
willow + dfer = wildflower (WILdfLOWer)

Wow that was awesome and mind bending. Plenty of fun and challenge.
I found this to be very interesting.Took about 10 minutes to solve.
I am ashamed to admit that I didn't even try.
Sad to say, but I got my butt kicked. Only 2 correct. Pathetic!!!
Very hard and very enjoyable! BEDLAM and SPLINTER I got right away, but the rest took a while, and I still didn't get them all right!
Keep up the good work!

Very challenging! I only got wildflower but it was fun!
