Matt, great card this year! Problems 1 and 2 are slightly ambiguous though in that you did not specify that each digit could only be used once.
I initially thought the answers were simply 44×44 = 1936 and 99×99999999 = 9899999901, respectively ????
×1 ×1

×1 ×1 I find that I can enter seven correct answers without issue. however, an eighth answer causes the entire tree to vanish.

@HJ: I can't reproduce that error on Firefox or Chrome on Ubuntu - although I did notice I'd left some debug outputting on, which I've now removed. Perhaps that was causing the issue.
If anyone else hits this issue, please let me know. ×1

×1 On my machine (Mac, using either Firefox or Chrome, including private mode so no plugins) the puzzle disappears when I complete the answers for 1, 3 and 9. I'm presuming my answers are correct -- the pattern they create is pretty clear and looks reasonable.
