In this method, getTreeCellRendererComponent() is called to obtain the renderer component (what else...) and [this component is added to rendererPane](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/36f4b34f1953af736706ec67192204727808bc6c/src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/plaf/basic/BasicTreeUI.java#L3283-L3284). It is not removed from the rendererPane afterwards. 
>> Only when the tree is painted, the paint() method does a removeAll on the rendererPane [in this code](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/36f4b34f1953af736706ec67192204727808bc6c/src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/plaf/basic/BasicTreeUI.java#L1500)
