Would someone with Minecraft PC be able to confirm/deny the following behavior? I'm going through some tree farm tutorials and all of them essentially reference the following behavior for trees (as per http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Birch#Birch_trees) :
The smallest birch tree requires a 5×6 (diameter×height) volume of free space, whilst the tallest tree requires a 5×8 volume. The volume starts at one meter above the base of the sapling, and needs to be void of any block save for leaves of any type or birch wood. This allows for birch trees to grow next to other birches.
What I see on Xbox One is that this is not honored. I can use Leaves, but I cannot use birch wood (or any other wood for that matter). The setup would look as follows: X = stack of 15 normal blocks, W = stack of 15 birch wood blocks, _ is empty space to the sky, B is the birch sapling
X W _ B _ W X
Can someone test to see if the Birch spapling above would end up growning. If I replace both 'W' stacks with stack of Leaves, things work fine.

Indeed, thanks DrAtomic1! I went back through some prior version release notes and found that this was fixed in 1.7.2 (bountiful update) as MC-1262
Man, this is just another really necessary feature from 1.7, the other being the new biome world generator changes :-/
