Adds fuller, bushier leaf models with varied shapes, natural decorations and matching item models while preserving Minecraft's familiar leaf textures and colors.
Overview

Bushy Leaves Enhanced gives Minecraft's trees fuller canopies with projecting leaf planes, varied silhouettes and small natural details while keeping the familiar appearance of the original leaf textures. Different tree species use different foliage styles, from broad oak leaves and airy birch foliage to narrow spruce branches, lush jungle leaves and softer flowering canopies. Each supported leaf type uses multiple foliage layouts and rotations to reduce repetition, creating more natural variation throughout forests and individual trees. Selected leaves can also feature subtle decorative details such as acorns, apples, birch catkins, spruce cones, jungle orchids, vines, cherries and blossoms. These additions are purely visual and do not add new drops, harvesting mechanics, growth systems or other gameplay changes.
