Tree

Trees are a type of flora found throughout the wastelands.

Characteristics
While the Great War caused the death of innumerable trees, many still remain alive, either growing naturally or cultivated under artificial conditions, such as by utilization of the Garden of Eden Creation Kit or underground in vaults or within the Institute. Before the war, in northern climates, moss grew on the shaded side of trees.

There are many varieties of trees based on region, ranging from pines in high elevations such as Jacobstown to Joshua trees in the lower Mojave. In other parts of the country, deciduous trees fill the landscape in abundance, such as in Zion Canyon and throughout Appalachia. Parts of trees, such as hollow logs and stumps, can contain items.

Behind the scenes

 * Bob, the tree growing out of Harold's head, is described by developers as an entirely new species of tree, with no pre-War equivalents or classifications.
 * A forest of oak trees infected by the Forced Evolutionary Virus are described in The Armageddon Rag, Vol. 4, a pre-release newsletter for Interplay's cancelled Project V13. The trees are described as having moving branches, as well as poisonous sap or leaves.
