The best arrangement of the sentences to show a smooth non-linear progression of events is:
Taylor, age 10, plants an apple seed. A tiny apple tree sprouts from the ground. Apples grow on the tree. Taylor, now a teenager, picks an apple off the tree.
This arrangement presents a clear timeline of the events: planting the seed, the seed sprouting into a tree, the tree growing apples, and finally Taylor picking an apple as a teenager.
