How to Plant Trees in New Horizons

If you're an avid player of the popular game Animal Crossing: New Horizons, you may have noticed the lack of trees on your island. Planting trees not only adds aesthetic value, but it also helps improve the island's biodiversity and provides a habitat for native animals. Here's how to plant trees in New Horizons!

Step 1: Find a spot

The first step is to find an ideal spot for your tree. Keep in mind that some trees require specific conditions, such as sunlight and proximity to water. You can easily check the suitability of a spot by pressing "Y" to access the island designer app, and then selecting "Island Evaluations." This will show you the star rating of your island, including the level of tree coverage.

Step 2: Dig a Hole

Once you've found the perfect spot, it's time to dig a hole. Open up your inventory and select the shovel. Stand where you want the tree to be placed and start digging a hole by pressing "A". The hole should be big enough to fit the sapling, but not so deep that the base of the tree is buried underground.

Step 3: Plant the tree

With the hole dug, it's now time to plant the tree! Open up your inventory again and select the sapling. Then stand near the hole and press "A" to plant the tree. Make sure to place the sapling in the hole and then cover it with the surrounding soil. To keep the tree growing, remember to water it every day for the first week!

Step 4: Wait for it to grow

Now that your new tree is planted, it's time to wait for it to grow. The growing time will vary depending on the type of tree, ranging from a few days to a few weeks. Be patient and continue to water the tree every day to help it grow faster. You can use fertilizer to accelerate the growth process as well.

Step 5: Enjoy your new tree

Once your tree has fully grown, you can now enjoy its beauty and the benefits it brings to your island. You can even customize the trees with decorations such as lights, ornaments, and presents. Plant more trees to keep your island lush and diverse, and watch as new animals come to live on your island.

In Conclusion

Planting trees in New Horizons requires patience and care, but the end result is worth it. It not only adds value to your island, but it also contributes to the overall health and well-being of your virtual ecosystem. Happy planting!
