An '''old growth birch forest''' or '''birch forest mutated''' is a variant of the [[Minecraft:birch forest]], notable for its trees, which are taller than those found in the normal birch forest.


An '''old growth birch forest''' or '''birch forest mutated''' is a variant of the [[Minecraft:birch forest]], notable for its trees, which are taller than those found in the normal birch forest.
== Generation ==
Like regular birch forests, old growth birch forests generate in temperate regions with moderately high humidities. However, old growth birch forests usually generate where weirdness is positive, so a [[Minecraft:river]] will often separate it from a regular birch forest, though they may also share a border directly. Old growth birch forests frequently border [[Minecraft:forest]]s, [[Minecraft:dark forest]]s, [[Minecraft:taiga]]s, and [[Minecraft:sparse jungle]]s.
 
[[Minecraft:Lush caves]] may generate beneath old growth birch forests due to their relatively high humidity.  


== Description ==
== Description ==
 
The old growth birch forest features [[Minecraft:birch tree]]s, half of which are significantly taller than normal with trunks up to 14 blocks tall. These tall birch trees are exclusive to the old growth birch forest and cannot be grown with a normal birch sapling. [[Minecraft:Bee nest]]s can be found on 0.2%{{Only|Java|short=1}} or 0.035%{{Only|Bedrock|short=1}} of the trees. [[Minecraft:Fallen tree]]s can also be up to 14 blocks long.
The old growth birch forest features [[Minecraft:Birch|birch trees]], half of which are significantly taller than normal with trunks up to 14 blocks tall. These tall birch trees are exclusive to the old growth birch forest and cannot be grown with a normal birch sapling. [[Minecraft:Bee Nest|Bee nests]] can be found on 0.2%{{Only|Java}} or 0.035%{{Only|Bedrock}} of the trees. Flowers that naturally generate in the biome include the [[Minecraft:Rose Bush|rose bush]], [[Minecraft:Lilac|lilacs]], [[Minecraft:Peony|peonies]], [[Minecraft:Lily of the Valley|lily of the valley]] and the very common [[Minecraft:wildflowers]]. Small patches of up to five [[Minecraft:Bush|bushes]] are also present, and [[Minecraft:Firefly Bush|firefly bushes]] often generate where the biome borders a [[Minecraft:river]]. 
 
Additionally, [[Minecraft:trail ruins]] may generate here as opposed to regular birch forests.


Old growth birch forests replace birch forests in positive [[Minecraft:World generation#Biomes|weirdness]] and consequently often border rivers as well as their regular biome variant. Uncommonly, they also border [[Minecraft:Forest|forests]], [[Minecraft:plains]], [[Minecraft:Dark Forest|dark forests]], [[Minecraft:Sparse Jungle|sparse jungles,]] mountain [[Minecraft:Grove|groves]], [[Minecraft:Taiga|taigas]], [[Minecraft:Swamp|swamps]], [[Minecraft:Windswept Forest|windswept forests]], [[Minecraft:Windswept Savanna|windswept savannas]] and very rarely [[Minecraft:Old Growth Pine Taiga|old growth pine taigas]], [[Minecraft:Old Growth Spruce Taiga|old growth spruce taigas]], [[Minecraft:Jungle|jungles]], [[Minecraft:Bamboo Jungle|bamboo jungles]] or [[Minecraft:Pale Garden|pale gardens]]. Just like other biomes that generate independently of continentalness and erosion values, old growth birch forests can also generate next to [[Minecraft:Beach|beaches]], [[Minecraft:Stony Shore|stony shores]] and [[Minecraft:ocean]] biomes. They cover about 2.179% of the [[Minecraft:Overworld|Overworld's]] area, making them slightly rarer than birch forests, and only a little more common than dark forests.  
Flower patches that naturally generate in the biome include [[Minecraft:rose bush]]es, [[Minecraft:lilac]]s, [[Minecraft:peonies]], and [[Minecraft:lilies of the valley]], as well as [[Minecraft:wildflowers]] covering the ground. Small patches of up to five [[Minecraft:bush]]es are also present.


Due to the abundance of birch trees combined with the amount of logs the tall birch trees provide, the old growth birch forest offers a good biome choice for [[Minecraft:Survival]]. Food is also plentiful, as the biome is home to farm animals and honey-producing bees. Furthermore, the leaf canopies of both normal and tall birches are less dense than those of [[Minecraft:Dark oak|dark oak trees]] in dark forests, allowing more sunlight to reach the ground and reducing the number of hostile mobs that can hide from sunlight during daytime.  
Additionally, [[Minecraft:trail ruins]] may generate here as opposed to regular birch forests. [[Minecraft:Abandoned camp]]s sometimes generate in old growth birch forests.

Template:Infobox biome An old growth birch forest or birch forest mutated is a variant of the Minecraft:birch forest, notable for its trees, which are taller than those found in the normal birch forest.

Generation

Like regular birch forests, old growth birch forests generate in temperate regions with moderately high humidities. However, old growth birch forests usually generate where weirdness is positive, so a Minecraft:river will often separate it from a regular birch forest, though they may also share a border directly. Old growth birch forests frequently border Minecraft:forests, Minecraft:dark forests, Minecraft:taigas, and Minecraft:sparse jungles.

Minecraft:Lush caves may generate beneath old growth birch forests due to their relatively high humidity.

Description

The old growth birch forest features Minecraft:birch trees, half of which are significantly taller than normal with trunks up to 14 blocks tall. These tall birch trees are exclusive to the old growth birch forest and cannot be grown with a normal birch sapling. Minecraft:Bee nests can be found on 0.2%Template:Only or 0.035%Template:Only of the trees. Minecraft:Fallen trees can also be up to 14 blocks long.

Flower patches that naturally generate in the biome include Minecraft:rose bushes, Minecraft:lilacs, Minecraft:peonies, and Minecraft:lilies of the valley, as well as Minecraft:wildflowers covering the ground. Small patches of up to five Minecraft:bushes are also present.

Additionally, Minecraft:trail ruins may generate here as opposed to regular birch forests. Minecraft:Abandoned camps sometimes generate in old growth birch forests.
