Cherry Leaves – Wiki Guide
This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft cherry leaves with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
In Minecraft, cherry leaves is a new item that was introduced in Minecraft 1.20. It is an item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace. Instead, you need to find and gather this item in the game.
Let’s explore how to add cherry leaves to your inventory.

How to get Cherry Leaves in Survival Mode
You can add cherry leaves to your inventory in Survival mode by trimming the leaves from a cherry tree with a pair of shears. So, let’s get started!
1. Find a Cherry Tree
First, you need to find a cherry tree in your Minecraft world. Cherry trees are found in the Cherry Grove biome.
2. Hold your Shears
Next, place the shears in your hand by selecting them in the hotbar.
Position your pointer (the plus sign) on the cherry leaves of the tree. You should see the block of cherry leaves become highlighted in your game window.
3. Use the Shears
Next, use the shears on the cherry leaves to cut them from the cherry tree.
The game control to use the shears on the cherry leaves depends on the version of Minecraft:
- For Java Edition (PC/Mac), left click and hold on the cherry leaves.
- For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap and hold on the cherry leaves.
- For Xbox One, press and hold the RT button on the Xbox controller.
- For PS4, press and hold the R2 button on the PS controller.
- For Nintendo Switch, press and hold the ZR button on the controller.
- For Windows 10 Edition, left click and hold on the cherry leaves.
You will need to continue to clip with the shears until the cherry leaves fall from the tree.
4. Pick up the Cherry Leaves
Make sure you pick up the cherry leaves before they disappear.
Once you pick up the cherry leaves, they will appear in your hotbar.
A block of cherry leaves is a useful item and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
