Trees are common plant features found in many biomes that mainly consist of logs and leaves. They can be grown from their respective saplings.

Trees can only generate on supported blocks (see § Growth and Characteristics). Tree placement from one biome can slightly overlap into neighboring biomes.

Trees vary widely in height, from a bare minimum of 1 log block for jungle bushes, ranging up to a maximum of 30 blocks for mega jungle trees.

Tree canopies are composed of leaf blocks and grow 1 block higher than the highest log block (except those of the fancy oak, whose leaves grow 3 blocks higher). The canopy may begin from the ground and go up to 6 blocks from the ground. Tree canopies are generated from roughly spherical clusters of leaves about 5–7 blocks across, centered on sections of trunk or branches. Leaves must be supported by an adjacent trunk (or leaf blocks connected to the trunk); otherwise, they disappear.

Fancy oak, dark oak, mangrove, azalea, cherry, pale oak, acacia, and mega jungle trees grow branches (logs connected horizontally, vertically, or diagonally to the trunk or other branches). Most of the time, a single tree has between one and six branches, and each branch has between one and six logs.​^{[more information needed]} Regular oak and regular jungle trees lack branches, as do all variants of birch and spruce.

Trees are created when chunks are generated, and can also be grown from saplings.

Tree saplings have a ¹⁄₂₀ chance (¹⁄₄₀ if they are jungle saplings) of dropping from leaf blocks when they decay or are destroyed. There are eight species of saplings, corresponding to eight trees: oak, birch, spruce, jungle, acacia, dark oak, cherry and pale oak.

The sapling can be planted on any variant of dirt, (except dirt path) a moss block, or mud, and must have a light level of at least 8 in the sapling block.

A sapling uproots with light level 7 or less in the sapling block itself unless it has a view of the sky that is unobstructed (except by glass or other transparent materials). The sapling must have at least 6 blocks of space above it to grow; the amount of required space varies between the different species of trees. A ceiling above sapling limits the maximum height of the tree that can grow from that sapling. However, dirt blocks and logs may not prohibit tree growth, and in some cases may be replaced as a sapling attempts to grow through them. However in Bedrock Edition, logs prohibit tree growth.

If multiple saplings are planted next to each other, each one grows as long as the leaves from the other grown saplings do not block too much of the sunlight. Artificial light (torches, etc.) can still be used to grow them if this happens.

All trees in the active chunk radius around the player make attempts to grow at random intervals. For any given tree this can work out to about one growth attempt per minute. When a tree attempts to grow, it first checks that it has enough light, then randomly chooses which variant of that species of tree to become; for example, an oak sapling chooses to grow as either a normal or fancy oak.

Once a tree has passed a light check and chosen size to attempt, it checks if there is enough space for its chosen size. If it encounters an obstruction during this check, it fails to grow and must wait for the next pass before it can attempt to grow again. This means that a tree in an open field with enough light grows relatively quickly, but a tree in a cramped tree farm that stunts its size may make several attempts before finally growing.

Bone meal, when used on a sapling, has a chance of forcing it to grow, so long as all of the normal checks (light, space, dirt, etc.) have passed. It does not guarantee growth, but forces an attempt to grow.

All saplings grow normally in the Nether and in the End, although they must be planted in dirt transported from the Overworld and provided with sufficient light and space. Leaf blocks in the Nether have the same color as if they were placed in a desert biome. In the End, they are a dull bluish-green, as in the windswept hills biome.

In order to grow a 2×2 tree (be it spruce, jungle, dark oak, or pale oak), four saplings must be placed adjacent to each other in a square. For growth to succeed, there must be no blocks adjacent (even diagonally) to the north-western side up to the final height of the tree. The bone meal can be used on any of the saplings. The largest mega jungle trees, mega spruces, and mega pines reach 31 blocks tall. Dark oaks are typically 6–8 blocks tall.

Leaves and logs removed from a tree do not grow back over time.

When a sapling on a grass block or mycelium or moss block grows into a tree, the block the sapling was planted on is instantly converted to dirt.

There are ten trees with a unique sapling. Most trees have different variants, some of which cannot be grown.

Oaks are among the most common trees in the game. They have the smallest space requirements, and along with dark oak trees, they can drop an apple when a leaf block is destroyed. In swamp biomes, a slightly larger variant of the regular oak with vines called the swamp oak is generated, which can naturally generate in shallow water. Fancy oaks may also grow or generate in place of regular oaks; these are taller and may feature branches. A rare variant is its smallest configuration, colloquially known as a "balloon" oak. Normal oaks can also generate in the trial chambers and they're all the same type with a single dirt underneath and a single water next to it. When near flowers oak trees may generate with a bee nest.

Spruce trees grow from spruce saplings and have growth patterns and requirements similar to birch trees, although they appear different. They are mainly found in the taiga biome, but they may also generate in windswept forest, snowy plains, snowy taiga, and old growth taiga biomes.

Birch trees look fairly similar to small oaks in terms of height and are most commonly found in birch forest biomes. There are two types of birch: a shorter tree that can be grown by the player with birch saplings; and a taller, rarer variety that generates only naturally in old growth birch forest biomes. When near flowers birch trees may generate with a bee nest.

Jungle trees are one of the rarest naturally generated trees in Minecraft because they are native to the jungle biomes, which are themselves rare. When planted in grass or dirt they grow into a jungle tree with a 1×1 trunk, but the player can place them in a 2×2 formation to grow a large jungle tree with a 2×2 trunk like the trees found naturally in the jungle biome. Jungle bushes also generate in the jungle biome, featuring a single jungle log surrounded by oak leaves. Jungle bushes cannot be grown by a player.

Acacias are found in the savanna biome. They are about 8 blocks tall and feature diagonal trunks, and may occasionally have multiple canopies.

  A variant of acacia with a single trunk, and multiple canopies

Dark oaks are found in the dark forest biome. They have thick 2×2 trunks and require 4 saplings placed in the same configuration to be grown by a player. A dark oak always generates with dirt blocks under its trunk, even on a steep cliff. Irregular logs, representing large branches, are nearly always present and connected to the trunk. The canopy of a dark oak filters enough light that a dense forest of them is sufficiently dark for hostile mobs to spawn during the daytime.

Azalea trees can generate on any empty space above a lush cave, with roots consisting of rooted dirt and hanging roots that reach down to the lush cave. The tree usually appears at the surface, but they can generate inside caves if there is enough room and a lush cave below.

Azalea trees can be manually grown by applying bone meal to an azalea or flowering azalea block ("bush"). Unlike most trees, they do not have their own wood type (the trunks are composed of oak logs), but they have two types of leaf block: azalea leaves, and flowering azalea leaves.

Mangroves are found in muddy mangrove swamps, growing in water or on land. They are grown from propagules, which can be found hanging from the trees. A mangrove converts any mud below its roots to muddy mangrove roots. The wood has a deep red-orange color.

Cherry trees are found in cherry groves. They have distinct pink leaves and horizontally facing branches. They also have a unique petal falling particle effect. They may occasionally have multiple canopies. When near flowers they may generate with a bee nest.

Pale oaks are found in pale gardens. They have thick 2×2 trunks and gray leaves with a leaf-shaped falling particle effect. They generate with pale hanging moss on some leaves, naturally generated pale oaks also may contain a creaking heart.

This section describes content that is currently in development.

 

This content has appeared in development versions for Third Drop 2026, but the full update adding it has not been released yet.

Poplars are found in dappled forests. They can generate or grow with red, orange, or yellow leaves. Shelf mushrooms sometimes generate on the trunk.

Some trees can generate as one of the two following variants of the normal tree. Both of these generate naturally, while only dying trees can be grown out of normal saplings.^[1][2]

Oak, spruce, birch, tall birch, jungle, and poplar trees can generate as fallen trees.

These trees consist of a single upright log, or stump. Logs lying on their side are often found 1–2 blocks from the stump and can have mushrooms growing from them.

This feature is exclusive to Bedrock Edition.

 

These trees have the standard growth pattern of any other tree, however, all exposed logs in the main trunk are covered with vines. They can generate as dark oak, jungle, spruce, or small oak trees, or can grow from saplings.

Depending on the biome the tree is located, the color of the leaves may differ. For example, if an oak is in a colder biome, such as a taiga or windswept hills biome, it has a blue-green hue. However, if it is in a dry biome, such as a desert or savanna, it has a mustard yellow hue. Spruce, birch, azalea, cherry, pale oak, and poplar leaves do not follow these rules; they always have the same color regardless of the biome. In Bedrock Edition, biome-tinted leaves turn white during snowfall.

• 
  Foliage color in wetter biomes
• 
  Foliage color in drier biomes
•

Leaves are checked individually for biome coloration rather than as part of a larger tree; as such, trees that were grown between biomes usually have multiple shades on each side.

• 
  A tree grown between two biomes
• 
  A tree situated on the boundary of a jungle, swamp and desert biome, showing skins of all three on its leaves
•

Java Edition Alpha
v1.0.6							The fancy trees were re-added, but not as big as they previously were.
Java Edition Beta
1.2							Birch and spruce trees introduced. Trees predating this update would appear to have multiple types of leaves, as the data indicating tree type was previously used for decay calculations. Oaks no longer generate in taigas.
1.5							Birch and spruce trees can now be grown using saplings. Old saplings either stayed as an oak sapling or became either a birch or spruce sapling.
1.8			Pre-release				The swampland biome was added, with a new swamp oak. There is no way to grow these trees.

1.21.2 Experiment Winter Drop			24w40a				Added pale oak trees behind the "Winter Drop" experimental data pack.
1.21.4			24w44a				Pale oak trees are now available without using the "Winter Drop" experimental data pack.
1.21.5			25w09a				Added fallen trees.

Issues relating to "Tree" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

• Floating trees may appear when small above-ground lava lakes generate in a forested area.^[9] This happens since the tree is generated when the chunk loads first, before the lake appears underneath. This leaves the tree floating above the lake, causing the tree to catch fire, potentially spreading to other trees and starting a forest fire.

• In the mid-2010s, the action of chopping a tree was referenced in a Honey Nut Cheerios advertisement. In the ad, it is represented by stacks of cheerios, and broken using a pickaxe.^[10]
• Trees resembling oak and azalea appear in a Minecraft-like scene in the game Happy Color.
• A single oak tree appears in Choplifter HD. It uses textures for oak leaves and logs, but is depicted in a radically different shape, being much taller and sporadic.
• Several spruce and oak trees appear in the Games Ending of The Stanley Parable.^[11]
