This is what I do.
If you haven't already, download Winrar.
In your blockland folder, create a folder called release. In there, make a folder called whatever you want to name your map. In there, make a base folder, in that, a maps folder. Place your .mis, and, if you map has any, the .ter's, .dif, and any additional textures. So it will be like

Blockland
    Release
        Mapname
            Base
                Maps
                    map.mis
                    map.ter

Then right click on the Base folder inside the Mapname folder, select Add to 'Base.rar'. When it's done  compressing, rename Base.rar to something else, and upload.

        For example, Autumn Pond would have it's snail add-on here.

If this makes it any easier to understand how to package a map, here is how I might have packed Ice Pack. I modified it a bit so it would show how to pack every resource (if you download the map, you'll see I don't use a custom sky or ice cubes).

To answer your question, assuming you used the trees that were used in bedroom, you do not need to include them in your map since everyone has them. If you used ones from another map, they should be inside of the shapes folder, unless you used a foliage replicator instead of placing them as static shapes, in which case you should put them in the foliage folder.
