Jungle Sapling is the growth stage of a jungle tree, obtained mostly by breaking jungle leaves. Unlike other saplings it requires a 2x2 planting pattern and needs more space to grow into its tall, vine-draped tree form.

FAQ

What tool do I need to mine a jungle sapling?

None — it breaks instantly with any tool or bare hands and always drops itself.

Why won't my jungle sapling grow?

Jungle trees need a 2x2 sapling arrangement to grow into the large variant; a single sapling can still grow into a small jungle tree if there is enough vertical space and light.

Can bone meal speed up growth?

Yes. Applying bone meal to a jungle sapling has a chance to instantly grow it into a tree, bypassing the light requirement.

Is jungle sapling renewable?

Yes. It drops from jungle leaves, which regrow from jungle trees, and it can also be purchased from wandering traders.
