Across the world, trees can be found littering the landscape. They are a great renewable source of wood, but never a source of food in Dwarf Fortess (it is currentlyv0.28.181.40d not possible to harvest mangos, maple syrup, rubber, nuts, etc.). There are many different varieties that grow in different biomes. While tower caps grow indoors, every other variety occurs only outdoors.
Trees are a type of map tile, not constructions, similar to solid rock or bushes. They must be designated for removal from the designations menu chop trees, which will instruct dwarves with the woodcutter skill to grab an axe and begin chopping down the tree.
Trees grow from saplings, which start growing randomly on tiles of a suitable biome. Saplings can be destroyed by heavy traffic. To grow from a sapling to a tree takes about a year and a half.
Trees viewed from one tile above look like coloured stone blocks floating in the air. Also, deciduous trees will change colour to red or yellow in autumn, and lose their leaves in winter: ╞.
Trees also gain names near elven settlements. It is unclear what effect this has on gameplay, if any at all.
Trees will not as of yet be destroyed by magma or fire (nor will water damage them in any way). Saplings can 'drown' in water and magma, though.
