Cherry blossoms have distinct pink leaves and curved branches. They also have a unique petal falling particle effect. As with [[oak]]s and [[birch]]es, a cherry blossom grown near flowers can generate with a [[bee nest]] attached. == Appearance == Cherry blossoms are formed in a way bearing some similarity to [[acacia]]s; they can generate with multiple canopies supported by separate branches. == Generation == Cherry blossoms spawn naturally only in the [[cherry grove]] biome. == Blocks and items == These items can be obtained from cherry: * {{ItemLink|Stick}} (chance of dropping when breaking leaves) * {{BlockLink|Cherry Planks}} (crafted from a log in the inventory crafting grid) * {{BlockLink|Stripped Cherry Log}} (created by using an [[axe]] on a log) * {{BlockLink|Cherry Log}} (harvested with any [[tool]] including hands) * {{BlockLink|Cherry Leaves}} (harvested with [[shears]]) * {{BlockLink|Cherry Sapling}} (chance of dropping when breaking leaves) * {{BlockLink|Bee Nest}} (if present on a tree near flowers) == Planting == [[Cherry sapling]]s can be planted on: *{{BlockLink|Dirt}} *{{BlockLink|Grass Block}} *{{BlockLink|Coarse Dirt}} *{{BlockLink|Podzol}} *{{BlockLink|Mycelium}} *{{BlockLink|Rooted Dirt}} *{{BlockLink|Moss Block}} *{{BlockLink|Pale Moss Block}} *{{BlockLink|Farmland}} *{{BlockLink|Dirt Path}} *{{BlockLink|Mud}} *{{BlockLink|Muddy Mangrove Roots}} A cherry tree requires a 5×5 area of unobstructed space 8 blocks above its sapling to grow (9 blocks including the sapling itself). No horizontal clearance is needed at the base of the tree (a sapling planted in a hole 1 block deep can still grow). Their growth is not hindered by logs, leaves or saplings. Based on 1000+ iterations of using a command block to replace the cherry log trunk with a sapling and spamming bone meal, the maximum dimensions the of a cherry tree is 11 blocks tall, 17x17 wide, consisting of leaves that are 9x9 rounded tubes whose center is 6 blocks off of the ground, spreading north south east and west, with some hanging leaves underneath. The branches can spread as far as 5 blocks from the center trunk, however the south and west side is missing the 5th block at the 3rd layer. The trunk of the tree is always 2 at least 2 blocks tall, with branches beginning as low as the 3rd Y layer and extending up to the 8th Y layer. A cherry tree grown from a sapling and within 2 blocks of a flower has a 5% chance of having a bee nest containing 2–3 bees. == Data values == === ID === {{section needed}} == History == {{HistoryTable |{{HistoryLine||link=https://twitter.com/pgeuder/status/361884775880982529|July 29, 2013|[[Patrick Geuder]] has mentioned his desire to add cherry trees to the game.}} |{{HistoryLine|java}} |{{HistoryLine||1.19.4|exp=Update 1.20|dev=23w07a|[[File:Cherry Tree JE1.png|32px]] Added cherry blossom trees.}} |{{HistoryLine|||dev=1.19.4 Pre-release 4|[[File:Cherry Tree JE2.png|32px]] Updated the texture of the cherry leaves.}} |{{HistoryLine||1.20|dev=23w12a|Cherry trees are now out of the experimental data pack. |[[File:Cherry Tree JE3.png|32px]] Updated the texture of the [[particles]] falling underneath.}} |{{HistoryLine|bedrock}} |{{HistoryLine||1.19.80|exp=Next Major Update|dev=Preview 1.19.80.20|[[File:Cherry Tree JE1.png|32px]] Added cherry blossom trees.}} |{{HistoryLine|||dev=Preview 1.19.80.21|[[File:Cherry Tree JE2.png|32px]] Updated the texture of the cherry leaves.}} |{{HistoryLine|||dev=Preview 1.19.80.22|[[File:Cherry Tree JE3.png|32px]] Updated the texture of the [[particles]] falling underneath.}} |{{HistoryLine||1.20.0|dev=Preview 1.20.0.21|Cherry trees are now out of the "Next Major Update" experimental toggle.}} }} == Issues == {{Issue list|-cape}} == Trivia == * In real life, cherry blossoms belong to a genera of trees known as ''[[wikipedia:Prunus|Prunus]].'' * During early development of the cherry grove biome, the developers used the pigs texture as a placeholder for the leaves.{{Ytl|GYO8KejSodg|Minecraft 1.20: Sniffer Secrets & Cherry Groves|Minecraft|May 14, 2023|t=240}} * Developer [[Patrick Geuder]] had been planning and working on cherry blossoms for about 10 years before they were added to the game.{{Mcnet|cherry-leaves|These beautiful trees were added to the Overworld in the Trails & Tales update in June 2023, though developer Patrick Geuder had been planning and working on their implementation for about ten years before that.
