Minecraft:Jungle Tree

Jungle trees are Minecraft:trees native to the Minecraft:jungle biomes. Jungle trees range from short bushes to tall trees that reach up to 31 blocks in height. Their wood is of a pale brownish color.

Appearance

Jungle trees come in several different variants with different properties:

• Regular jungle trees are short, lack branches, and have a 1×1 trunk, which can extend up to 10 blocks tall. Only the top of the trunk is covered in Minecraft:leaves.
  • All naturally generating jungle trees are covered in Minecraft:vines, both on their trunk and exposed leaves. Minecraft:Cocoa pods occasionally generate on the sides.
  • All jungle trees grown from Minecraft:saplings are not covered in vines and cocoa pods, but they can grow as Minecraft:tree with vines Template:In.
• 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 Minecraft:logs. The trunk covers a 2×2 space on the ground.

Fallen jungle trees

Fallen jungle trees replace regular jungle trees in any biome where they can generate except bamboo jungles.

A fallen jungle tree may consist of a single upright log, or a stump. Logs lying on their side are often found 1–2 blocks from the stump. They occasionally have mushrooms on top.

A fallen jungle tree has a log length of 4–11 blocks. Minecraft:Vines cover 75% of the stump.

Jungle trees with vines

Some undecorated jungle trees may be covered with Minecraft:vines on all exposed logs; undecorated jungle trees can only be grown with saplings.

Generation

The jungle tree variants generate naturally in the indicated biomes, ordered in density:

A large jungle tree always generates with Minecraft:dirt under its trunk, even if it spawns partly or wholly over Minecraft:air or Minecraft:water blocks.

When planted in grass or dirt, a jungle sapling grows into a jungle tree with a 1×1 trunk, but the Minecraft:player can place saplings in a 2×2 formation and they grow into a jungle tree with the 2×2 trunk found naturally in the jungle biome.

1×1 jungle trees require a 3×3 column of unobstructed space at least 5 blocks above the sapling to grow (6 blocks including the sapling itself). Additionally, 1×1 jungle trees require 5×5 layers without obstruction for the top 3 layers of its final height. No horizontal clearance is needed at the base of the tree (a sapling planted in a hole 1 block deep still grows).

In order to grow a 2×2 jungle tree, 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. Minecraft:Bone meal can be used on any of the saplings to accelerate growth.

2×2 jungle trees require a 5×5 column of unobstructed space at least 11 blocks above the saplings to grow (12 blocks including the saplings themselves). This column is centered on the northwestern sapling. A 3×3 area is required at the base of the tree (the level of the saplings). They can grow up to 32 blocks high.

If planted by the player, 1×1 jungle trees do not generate with vines, while 2×2 jungle trees do. 2×2 jungle trees cannot grow side by side because the vines break the space clearance requirement.

Foliage colors

Template:Main Depending on where the tree generates, the color of the leaves may differ. For example, a jungle tree's leaves are normally bright deep green in the jungle, but they have a beige tint in badlands 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.
