Neither. Anything that is affixed to the land becomes the property of the landlord upon expiration of the lease unless the lease or a side agreement provides otherwise. This most commonly happens when, for example, a commercial tenant leases raw land and builds a commercial building on it. The building reverts to the landlord upon expiration of the lease. The same goes, however, for plants.
