*****I edited my explanation after reading Ued-san’s comments. I wonder if he corrected first in the correct table not comment above. 

おぼえてくださいは、memorize it の意味にもなりますが、私はそんなにまちがいじゃないと思います。

 For example, it is the same usage as "Remeber me, I always support you". ”Don't be nervous, Remember to smile." I know if you use "Don't forget it" in these sentences, it sounds strong. That's why you used おぼえてin your entry. It doesn't mean to memorize it. I perfectly understand it, so I draw an underline. As Ueda-san writes, おぼえていてください might be better. 

I think that the word "remember" when English speakers say is the same meaning as "Don't forget it", so some Japanese are likely to correct 覚(おぼ)えてくださいinto 忘(わす)れないでください。It's fine and right. If someone corrects it, he needs to explain too, as it changes to a totally different word. 

I just wanted to say your Japanese word is not wrong as your level. Next time,  if you write "Remember it" as " Don't forget it" in Japanese, you can write 忘れないでください(わすれないでください)or おぼえていてください。

But still, I personally think your original おぼえてくださいis not so wrong. "Remember this beautiful tree too.” Personally, I can say このきれいな木もおぼえてください。You can know that it doesn't mean to memorize preciously by the contents of the conversation. However, when your Japanese makes an improvement further,  you'll be able to naturally say おぼえていてください. It's the best. 

If it means to recall, you can say 思い出す(おもいだす)

Remember (recall) this tree.この木を思い出してください。I didn't know which one you wanted to say. 

By the way,

Thank you very much for your correction for My English entry the other day! 私の英語を添削してくれてありがとうございます!
