The Saplings are characters in the animated television series The Tick.
History[]
When El Seed tried to take over the world, starting with The City, by bringing all plants to life and making them his soldiers, a few of the first plants he animated are four saplings. Rather than serve in his army, they take off in a stolen truck. They appear again when they give Die Fledermaus, Sewer Urchin and American Maid a ride to Charles' house.
