Tree

Trees are the structures created both by the automatic generation of the map, and by players. They are built of trunk blocks and leaves. When generated by the map, they are frequently found in groups, in the style of a forest.

They can be generated in a third way as well. If a shrub is placed in sunlight on a grass block with enough space, a tree will likely grow within several seconds.

This feature was added to Creative Mode in version 0.28_01. But since this was removed due to its griefer-friendly applications ("treespam"), it was added to server.properties of the server files.

JTE: A command (/tree) allows you to build trees without a hassle. When you type the command, place a trunk and it'll automatically grow. Obviously this is just a custom server, so if you do it on another server, it will not work.

Currently, in Indev mode, trees wither and all their leaves disappear if over 2 blocks of their log is chopped.
