No matter how I twist or turn it, "4" does appear in the output.
# With strictures:
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump 'pp';
my %hash;
$hash{tree} = 4;
$hash{tree}->{apple} = 6;
pp \%hash;
__END__
Can't use string ("4") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at G:\
+x.pl line 7.
# Without strictures:
use warnings;
use Data::Dump 'pp';
my %hash;
$hash{tree} = 4;
$hash{tree}->{apple} = 6;
pp \%hash;
__END__
{ tree => 4 }
No offense, but the real problem is that the OP doesn't seem to understand that the value part of a key/value pair can only hold one value, and consequently the design of his data structure is flawed.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
