If you’re looking to truly make your house or structure stand out in Minecraft, then you want to go with Cherry Blossom wood for the design. However, Cherry Blossom trees are extremely rare and only spawn in their own specific biome. Below, you can see how to find that biome and everything else associated with Cherry Blossom in Minecraft.
Finding the Cherry Blossom Biome in Minecraft
The Cherry Blossom biome is difficult to miss once you’re nearby, as it features bright pink trees and petals all over the ground. Unfortunately, the biome is usually incredibly small, meaning you’ll have to look extremely hard for it in the overworld. To make your search simpler, you can look near mountains, as that’s the most likely biome to be near Cherry Blossoms. However, the biome can spawn anywhere, so you might be searching for it for a while.
Unless you’re willing to enable console commands, there’s no surefire way to happen across the Cherry Blossom biome. You simply have to get lucky and hope that it doesn’t take too long. If you are willing to enable console commands, here’s a quick step-by-step tutorial on how to use them to find Cherry Blossoms:
- Open up the console command box and type in: /locate biome cherry_grove
- This gives you the exact coordinates of the nearest Cherry Blossom biome
- With those coordinates, type in the following command: /tp X X X (replace the X’s with the coordinates of the biome)
- You might end up underground, but you’ll be right under the Cherry Blossom biome once you teleport to the coordinates
Regardless of how you end up at a Cherry Blossom biome, you have the chance to chop down the bright pink trees and acquire Cherry Logs, which are dark brown on the outside and pink on the inside. If you break those logs down into Cherry Planks, you can make all the normal wood items in Minecraft. Be careful when chopping down trees, though, as many Cherry Blossoms have Bee Nests in them.
Of course, perhaps the best use for Cherry Planks is in construction. The bright pink wood is unlike any other building block in Minecraft, so they can really add some flair to whatever you’re building.
Growing Cherry Blossom Trees in Minecraft
While finding the Cherry Blossom biome is great, it’s only half the battle. The biome doesn’t feature many trees, so your source is quite limited. Luckily, you can acquire Cherry Saplings when cutting down Cherry Blossom and their leaves. Cherry Saplings can be planted in dirt or grass blocks and, after some time, they’ll grow into a large Cherry Blossom tree.
Cherry Saplings aren’t the only item you’ll find near the trees, however. You can also pick up Cherry Leaves, which are the petals that are lying on the ground near the trees. Use a pair of shears to harvest the petals and place them around an entryway or anywhere else to add a splash of flora and color. You can produce more Cherry Leaves by using Bone Meal on the petals once they are placed on the ground.
That covers just about everything you need to know about finding Cherry Blossom in Minecraft. If you can ensure a solid production of the trees and petals, you’ll be able to build many unique and eye-catching structures in your world.
