IMO E
"Neighborhood association planted" --- *catch point* 108 trees (Could be a HIT or Flop point :))
Let Brich trees planted by association be x.
1. Says about all the tree in the Neighborhood( including 108 trees) - Insufficient.
2. Says about Birch trees in the neighborhood and NOT Brich trees planted by the association - Insufficient.
Combining st 1 and 2 gives us no information about those birch trees that were planted by the association.
So E
