Uhhhh, The first tree appeared in the Devonian, which is like 280 million years after snowball earth.
There were far more time elapsed between the end of the last snowball earth and the first tree with rings than had elapsed between when the first dinosaur walked the earth and now.
As far as we know, there wasn’t even multi-celluar plants right before or after the snowball earth. Tough to grow a ring with only one cell, don’t you think?
