To be precise, debug_print_plan=on prints the expression tree that comes
from planner, not the execution tree of ExprStates. But the structure of
the ExprState tree is the same as the planner tree, you just have
ExprState nodes in place of Expr nodes.

It is indeed a tree that gets printed with debug_print_plan. There's
more than the expression tree there, with information about planner the
relations involved etc. Look for "targetlist" and "qual" fields in the
output, that's where the expression trees are.
