Im fairly sure the trees have some connection to old gods so no one is growing another tree. They are just going to have to erect a city made of buildings like everyone else.
I don’t believe anything was restored to the night elves from Green and Red blessings. Blizzard totally abandoned any logical conclusions they could have derived.
IMO , if they want to boost the night elves, immortality should return via the existing well of eternity, which they are still connected too. With the arcane ban long dead, my understanding is a simple manipulation allows them to extend their lives indefinitely.
However I also feel night elf fans want a bit more than ‘restores immortality’ for all the crap they’ve gotten.
I still think a nightborne , night elf alliance is the way forward, regardless of the two halves of the Kaldorei being on opposite faction.
Changed faction relations should facilitate this.

What the? I know we maybe did not pick spanners and hammers and gone to build machines itself but PCs did: mine Azerite during Island Expeditions to fuel the war machine, secure faction's Azerite sources (even the goddamn quests in Silithus where goblins mine and we help them as Horde).
And the other day after we have just collected 40 000 weekly Azerite units we go to kill some Stormsong loyalists mining azerite because Magni says we need to do so in order to save the planet lul (and we still do MINE Azerite there) it's not really like we only used "recycled" Azerite.

They retconned Malfurion, Tyrande and Illidan's age. They were all young adults during the War of the Ancients, and they gained immortality immediately after that.

I'm pretty sure the Azsuna Highborne are somewhere between life and death. But yeah, it's curious that they're still able to use their magic.
I'd say it was more like indefinite life based on a resource as opposed to true immortality, due to Night Elves being transformed by the Well their bodies can take the well in. However, that was only when the Night Elves embraced the Arcane and used it to power their bodies. High Elves and Nightborne do this now.
Based on the premise of the OP, I'd say this is no longer possible for the arcane-phobic Night Elves of the present.
What you might have missed is the subtle art of storytelling.
If you have a movie that shows you there is a gun on the wall, and they make a point about it being there, loaded and ready to fire, then we, the audience, has an expectation of it being used or being relevant in the story at some point. Otherwise there's no reason to give it attention, or have it be there in the first place. If it is there in the story, then it's meant to be fired. This is Chekhov's Gun.
Night Elves are demi-mortals with immortal status due to 'magic'. They are the same as mortals in every other way, just that they don't die from old age. The whole point of explaining them having immortality in the first place is to illustrate a dramatic sacrifice made at the end of the story. From a story-breakdown perspective, Night Elf immortality was written in for the purpose to be tragically removed. They are meant to have the same mortality as every other race, showing that they are all equals in this world together; no one power greater than the other. That was the message provided in Reign of Chaos; that there needs not be any 'Guardians' in the world. Everyone does their part.
That is the reason why the Night Elves won't get immortality back.
Woooow, THEY RETCONNED THAT! WHEN!
So basically they cant get old without nozdormu blessing. For the love of all thats chicken. So pissed right now. I thought that they at the vrry least could get around 5-7k ish without blessing but noooooo they suckerpunched the elfs again. I mean why would they make night elfs not that old anymore, come on there isnt a single reason than just to beat them more up. Grrrrrrrr
Edit:
Okey ive regained my composure. So how old can night elfs be? I find it odd that they would make a race that ruled the entire kaldorei and were masters of the arcane to just tree lovers. I really hope the aspects get their powers again from a titan facility so they can bless the night elfs again, because come on they are the only faction in kalimdor. Draneai never counted because the only presence they have in kalimdor are 4 peeps north east of ashenvale and thats it. Also WHERE IS THE VINDACAAR! oh crap im getting pissed again.

I agree with you on that, odd that a race wouldnt do anything for 10.000 years. I mean come on, im the most laziest person but without a pc even I would do something with my life.
