Why: On "10 Things You Probably Didn't Know About Harry Potter" on Mental_Floss:
7. Harry, Ron and Hermione all have wand cores based on their birthdays: the Celt assigned trees to people based on that kind of like we assign gemstones today. She had already assigned Harry’s holly-based wand when she discovered the Celt tree calendar and found that she had accidentally assigned him the “right” type of wood.The what!
Answer: Well here's one, but it doesn't help much because I don't know where my birthday fell on the lunar calendar...
so now I've also Googled "when was i born lunar," and here's a handy finder. It says:
Which I guess is closest to this one:
THE BALSAMIC MOON or WANING CRESCENT MOON (316d-359d) represents the end of the karmic round. The mature plant is ready to let its seeds blow in the winds until they find a spot where they can grow on their own. In an existence marked by this phase, the individual is concerned with wrapping up old projects and loose ends. A powerful desire to rectify the misdeeds of the past can lead to preoccupation with memories of bygone days. Such reminisces may be an unhealthy obsession, or they may enrich the soul with the essence of garnered experience. At the same time, one may look wistfully toward the future in anticipation of a new karmic cycle and a new purpose to be undertaken under the coming new Moon.I don't know what that's supposed to mean, but it does say this at the top:
See if your intuition and the way you view your life and self matches!OK, sure, yeah, I guess I remember a lot of things.
And now back to the trees.
...Oh - this is embarrassing - I just realized that if I scrolled down a little further on the Tree page, I would have just found this.

Although this other site says I'm a Rowan tree, so who knows:
Rowan - The ThinkerSo I don't know what to think.
January 21-February 17
Celtic tree astrology recognizes Rowan signs as the philosophical minds within the zodiac. If you were born under the Rowan energy, you are likely a keen-minded visionary, with high ideals. Your thoughts are original and creative, so much so, that other’s often misunderstand from where you are coming. This sometimes makes you aloof when interacting with others as you feel they wouldn’t understand where you are coming from anyway. Nevertheless, although you may appear to have a cool exterior, you are burning within from your passionate ideals. This inner passion provides inner motivation for you as you make your way through life. You have a natural ability to transform situations and people around you by your mere presence. You are highly influential in a quiet way and others look to you for your unique perspectives. Rowan pairs well with Ivy and Hawthorn signs.
