It's a directory tree, not a site tree.  Think of it as it might appear 
in the folder pane of the Windows Explorer:
    drupal/
        includes/
        modules/
        themes/

The directories form a tree, with Drupal at the root.  It's fairly 
common to describe a root directory with a set of subdirectories as a 
directory tree.
