Those "trees" near the Martian south pole look pretty fucking organic to me. Why not take a closer picture of them?
And they grow and shrink with the seasons. NASA says they're some kind of ice formations but apparently they're not even talking about the same "trees" as everyone else when they say that. Frankly, I think NASA is obstinate about this because they've been ordered from higher up to be obstinate and slippery about it. In another entry, Mac mentioned in-house politics as a likely possibility, but its not exactly clear what those politics ARE. Maybe someone Up There feels that the whole policy of secrecy around anything to do with extraterrestrials would come unraveled if they admitted there is life on Mars, a fact which does seem increasing likely.

The Martian "spiders" and "banyan trees" have yet to be explained. JPL seems content to ignore them, despite repeated remarks from Arthur C. Clarke. The most it will do is erroneously reference images of defrosting sand dunes, which often really do look like terrestrial forests.
I don't know about defrosting sand dunes, but the individual "trees" look a hell of a lot like TREES to me - or something VERY similar to trees, at any rate.
