Package tree is available in Universe. Check that you have it enabled:

enter image description here

Then just do the usual

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install tree

All Ubuntu repositories (main, universe, restricted, multiverse) can be enabled by following command:

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main universe restricted multiverse"
