The ubiquitous oak, found in most biomes (excluding deserts and icy tundras), provides versatile wood for planks, sticks, fences, and ladders. Oak trees yield apples, a valuable early-game food source and golden apple ingredient. Its neutral tone suits diverse building styles, from rustic cabins to modern cityscapes.

Birch

Birch, with its light-colored, patterned wood, thrives in birch forests and mixed biomes. Its clean aesthetic lends itself to modern and minimalist designs. Birch pairs beautifully with stone and glass, creating bright, airy interiors.

Spruce

Dark spruce wood, harvested from taiga and snowy biomes, is ideal for gothic and grim structures. Its height can present a harvesting challenge. Spruce's warm, robust texture is perfect for medieval castles, bridges, and country homes.

Jungle

Towering jungle trees, exclusive to jungle biomes, offer bright, decorative wood. Their cocoa bean yield makes them essential for cocoa farms. Jungle wood's exotic appearance is perfect for adventure-themed builds and pirate hideouts.

Acacia

Acacia, with its distinctive reddish hue, flourishes in savannas. Its unusual, horizontally branching structure makes it ideal for ethnic-style villages, desert bridges, and African-inspired builds.

Dark Oak

Dark oak's rich, chocolate-brown wood is a favorite for castles and medieval structures. Found only in Roofed Forests, it requires four saplings for planting. Its deep texture is perfect for luxurious interiors and grand doors.

Pale Oak

A rare find in Pale Garden biomes, pale oak shares dark oak's texture but boasts a gray color. Its moss-covered trunk contains "skripcevina," summoning hostile "skripuns" at night. It complements dark oak beautifully.

Mangrove

A recent addition, mangrove trees inhabit mangrove swamps. Their reddish-brown wood and unique roots add authenticity to pier, bridge, and swamp-themed constructions.

Warped

One of the Nether's two tree types, warped wood's turquoise hue lends itself to fantasy builds. Its non-flammable nature and bright texture are perfect for magic towers, mystical portals, and decorative gardens.

Crimson

The Nether's other tree type, crimson wood's red-purple shade is ideal for dark and demonic themes. Its non-flammability makes it perfect for hazardous environments. It's popular for Nether-themed interiors.

Cherry
