I have thought of an idea to add redwood trees to the game. A tree that grows really high and instead of it being 1x1 at the base make it 3x3. It could also add a new style biome a redwood forest biome. I think it would be epic to see a tree that almost grows to the top of the map and you could collect a massive amount of wood from it. Thoughts?

So it's basically a pine tree that's 3x3 thick instead of just 1. Doesn't seem that useful or good looking at all.

I just want to say to all of you haters... Ha! it looks like with the 1.2 update a similar version of my trees were added along with a new forest biome. you shot me down notch said hmm this is a good idea so screw you and the minecart you rode in on!

Well, it is a jungle biome instead of a redwood biome,
but you are technically correct in that they are thicker than 1x1, and much taller than normal trees.
Maybe in pine forest some can have a 2x2 base such as the large jungle trees, being taller then the other ones. I wouldn't mind more variety at all. It's an alright idea.
Yes and now that the map height is extended to 256 from bedrock taller trees make even more sense. The original redwood trees might still come to. think of when there was only one tree back in alpha, late beta 4 different trees, now 6 different trees. Soon to come different types of tall trees?
