How many triangles is the cherry tree?

2,930 as proposed. The complexity slider takes it down to a few hundred or up for a hero tree, and the export adds LOD1 and LOD2.

Can I change the height?

Yes, between 4 and 7 m, and the trunk's diameter, taper and lean with it.

Yes. There's no account, no watermark and no limit on downloads.

Can I use it in a commercial game?

Everything you build here is yours. Use it in any project, commercial or not, with no attribution required.

Low poly cherry tree, built to your size

A low poly cherry tree made with PolyMason — 2,930 triangles at 5.5 m, as PolyMason proposes it

Build this cherry

Short trunk, wide spreading boughs, a rounded crown in blossom. As proposed, the cherry tree is 2,930 triangles at 5.5 m, with foliage as clumps of leaves. You can take it from 4 to 7 m, and every other control stays within what a cherry tree can be.

A cherry tree is mostly used for its blossom. Set the two greens to pink and white and you have a Japanese park in April, a path to a temple, or an orchard in flower. Leave them green and it's the same orchard in summer, or a garden tree beside a house. The tree itself is small, with a short trunk, wide spreading boughs and a rounded crown. It fits under taller trees without competing with them.

Since blossom is only a change of color, the two greens control the whole season. Use pale pink and white for full flower, or a deeper pink for an ornamental variety. Widen the spread to open up the crown on an old orchard tree. Cherries get planted in rows and grids, so you can build one and place it many times. Vary the height slightly so the row doesn't look stamped out. The young version works for a newly planted orchard.

What you can change

Trunk: height, diameter, taper, sides, lean, curve and gnarl, with bark from the species' colors or any color you pick.
Boughs: count, rings or spiral, where they leave the trunk, angle, length, thickness, curve, and twigs.
Foliage: style, size, spread, complexity (your triangle budget) and two greens.
Export: LOD1 and LOD2, sapling and young versions, dead, stump, felled, logs and billboards.

The export is a zip with OBJ, STL and 3MF. The OBJ uses the shared palette texture and has flat normals in the file. Models are in meters and stand at the origin, and the zip includes whichever levels of detail and other versions you select. The trees page covers the formats, and the OBJ guide covers importing.
