    Maybe you are zoomed too far out to see anything inserted.

    I did a quick test using AutoCAD 2012 and it worked for me whether I specified the insertion point inside the INSERT dialog window or I specified it at the command line. See example below.

    When asked to pick a block insertion point, such as that for your tree, in my opinion it is always a good idea to pick somewhere on or within the block itself. For your tree block I would use the center. Seems obvious but you'd be surprised at how many people elect to use 0,0,0 as the insertion point then wonder what happened to their block.
