Selecting the Right Sapling for Biome-Specific Trees

Identifying Component Blocks

Custom trees added by world generation mods such as Terralith and Blooming Biosphere do not drop custom saplings. Instead, they rely on standard vanilla foliage and wood blocks. Because of this, the mod determines what shape to grow based on the vanilla sapling you plant.

Before harvesting a custom tree, inspect its composition:

  • Examine the trunk to see which vanilla wood log it uses.
  • Check the canopy to verify the vanilla leaf type.

Acquire the vanilla sapling that matches the logs and leaves of that specific tree structure.

Planting in the Native Biome

Custom tree shapes cannot be grown anywhere in the world; they are strictly bound to their native environments.

1. Take the corresponding vanilla sapling into the custom biome where you originally found the tree.

2. Place the sapling upright without crouching.

3. Look for the white particles that confirm the sapling has linked with the biome's custom tree generation.

If you plant the sapling in a standard vanilla biome or an unsupported area, it will simply grow into a normal vanilla tree, even if you are using the correct wood type.
