We show that an infinite weighted tree admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into
Hilbert space if and only if it does not contain arbitrarily large complete
binary trees with uniformly bounded distortion. We also introduce a new metric
invariant called Markov convexity, and show how it can be used to compute the
Euclidean distortion of any metric tree up to universal factors.
