And then, in 3:22, God runs them out of the garden before they eat of the Tree of Life "and live forever". A guard is placed at the Tree of Life in v.24.
So, as the Bible States; there are only two trees of importance in the Garden of Eden:
1. The Tree of Knowledge, of Good and evil.
2. The Tree of Life

The Two Trees. The starting point of the discussion is usually on the two trees, the Tree of Life and the Tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Gen. 2:10). Proponents note the difference between the "trees that grow out the ground" as opposed to "the trees in the midst of the garden." This is used to indicate the two trees are not physical trees but principles (e.g. ideas, rules).[18][19] They also point to Rev. 2:7 and Rev. 22:2, where the Tree of Life is now in heaven to show that the two trees are not the same kind of trees that grow on Earth but instead are something spiritual. Furthermore they point out that since man chose to eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, it should still be visible somewhere in the world today, which they claim is the overt sexuality of society.
Commentary by EDGT.Urquico
Does this suggest that the once paradise on earth which contained the two trees within the garden was indeed on earth, but now that Tree of Life is in heaven.
Again it goes back to the previous article, concerning The Book of Life and how it has interesting parallells with The Tree of Life. As this tree represents Jesus, "The giver of life". In opposition, The Tree of Knowledge, of Good and evil. Re-introduced to mankind, By Satan, The life-taker, bringing sin and misery. Also spawning his Serpent seed into the world, that evil human race of Cains lineage, The important thing to understand is that the
The Tree of Life / Book of life is given to us by Christ. Your name is written in the book of life! And the ruling Elite class of our world today I call the Cain's race of wicked people, have the best of everything at their diposal, enjoying the riches of the earth while they're still alive to prosper, while many are suffering without food to eat, those wicked race of Cains lineage whether they realize it or not; are without a Redeemer! Therefore they are not in the The Book of life ! For in the beginning they were not Gods Creation, but of the devils.
