Real World:
Lo and behold, I found it, at IMDB. The film tree was shot at
Malabar Farm State Park - 4050 Bromfield Road, Lucas, Ohio, USA (cabin at beginning, tree and rock wall)
http://www.dnr.state.oh.us/parks/parks/malabar.htm
And the shots of "Buxton" were shot in Butler, Ohio.
(rural town of "Buxton" where "Red" journeys to; shot of bus leaving with "Red" near end of film)
Both are in the vicinity of Mansfield, OH, where most of the prison scenes were shot.
-- Fictional World
The Shawshank Redemption was set in Maine, which is the home state of Steven King, who wrote the story.
The tree is located in a wheat field near Buxton. There is a Buxton, Maine. It's about 12 miles west of Portland, near US Highway 202.

The prison part of the movie was mainly filmed in West Kentucky. I searched the name Buxton on my map program and came up with 9 different states that have that name. I am guessing that the rocks and tree in the movie were either Maine, or Missouri as both places have the same types of topography and fauna.
