Minecraft’s Trails and Tales update brought the Cherry Blossom tree. This tree not only enhances the game’s aesthetic appeal but also offers versatile materials like Cherry Blossom wood. We’ll show you how to obtain this unique wood, its uses, and how to grow Cherry Blossom trees in your Minecraft world.
How to get Cherry Blossom Wood in Minecraft
Introduced in update 1.21, the Cherry Blossom tree in Minecraft is an addition that brings both aesthetic and practical benefits. To procure Cherry Blossom wood, begin by locating a Cherry Blossom tree, identifiable by its unique pink leaves, curved branches, and the special petal falling particle effect. Harvest the Cherry Log, which can be done with any tool or even bare hands.
Crafting With Cherry Blossom Wood
Once you’ve collected a Cherry Log in Minecraft, it can be transformed into Cherry Planks using the inventory crafting grid. Additionally, using an axe on a log produces a Stripped Cherry Log, another crafting material. Besides logs and planks, the Cherry Blossom tree also yields other items when broken, such as Cherry Leaves (harvested with shears), Sticks, and occasionally a Bee Nest.
How to plant Cherry Blossom Trees in Minecraft
Once you break the leaves of the Cherry Blossom tree, there’s a chance a Cherry Sapling will drop. You can plant this sapling on various surfaces, including:
- Coarse Dirt
- Dirt
- Farmland
- Grass Block
- Moss Block
- Mud
- Muddy Mangrove Roots
- Mycelium
- Podzol
- Rooted Dirt
Keep in mind that a Cherry tree requires a 5×5 area of unobstructed space 8 blocks above its sapling to grow. However, no horizontal clearance is needed at the base of the tree, meaning a sapling planted in a hole 1 block deep can still grow successfully.
Generation of Cherry Blossom Trees
In the world of Minecraft, Cherry Blossom trees naturally generate in cherry groves. So, if you’re searching for a Cherry Blossom tree to start harvesting Cherry Blossom wood, your best bet is to explore and find one of these groves. They usually spawn near meadows but are uncommon. If you have an Elytra, Cherry Blossom groves are easiest to spot from the air.
