Blossom is a Fabric mod for Minecraft that makes oak leaves blossom and bear fruit! No longer do you have to destroy your tree to get those apples, now you can simply shear them off when they are grown! Flowering oak leaves will bloom from any oak leaves when pollinated by bees. Watch as bees nurture your apples from bud to pome! You can help speed up their growth with bone meal, if you so choose.

What does this do?
It adds a Flowering Oak Leaves block that Oak Leaves can turn into. These flowering leaves will grow until they bear fruit, which you can then shear to obtain! Upon shearing, these flowering leaves will return to normal leaves until they start the process over again!
Why do you need this?
If you want to preserve your trees and still get apples, or if you are seeking more realistic apple harvesting!

Okay, I had a feeling and I was spot on. Another "mod" did indeed add saplings to the leaves tag. Terralith is where the incompatibility lies. I will see about what route I should take to remedy it. I don't know why they add them there, as it is a huge datapack basically with a few mixins, but it surely is the reason why you are getting the crash. I could fix compatibility with Terralith by reducing compatibility with other mods, or maybe make a hard-set compatibility with it. I'll probably make a patch regardless soon just to resolve this crash, and then work out what can be done with that soon. Expect an update out on Monday.

I have tested and the mod is working fine now! Thanks!
Is there no Forge version?

Nope, I have put Forge behind me. Fabric is the future of Minecraft modding!
This looks great! I have a question, will leaf blocks have a chance do drop a apple even with this mod, os I will only be able to get apples this way?
In reply to 2devic:
Apples have been removed from the loot table of the oak leaves, but are in the loot table of the flowering oak leaves. While this may make it harder to get apples while venturing in the wild, if you create an apiary and an orchard the trade-off is that apples will be much easier to obtain than before. You can replace the oak leaves' loot table JSON with the vanilla one if you wish to restore that drop chance.

Thanks for enjoying it!

I haven't even played it yet but the concept is cool enough that I'm adding it and once I get a chance to play modded mc again I'll be sure to include this mod =w=
This is such a great idea! Just curious, do you plan on adding other fruits? I love this though. I was recently wondering why something like this didn't exist for farming apples in vanilla. It's like you're in my mind.
In reply to Nubberslaw:
I have started another mod that is all about growing more realistic tree species. If I recall correctly it adds something like 36 more species to the game. A year or two ago I embarked on making a Forge mod that added 57 species with branching blocks, but they were only used for hand-building and not done with vanilla-styled textures. This new Fabric mod will be a cut-down version of that, but focused on a vanilla style.
These mods that I have been releasing here have sort of been tech demos of what I want to implement into that mod, so yes, there will be apples, oranges, cherries and such also blooming from the trees in that mod. But Blossom itself will remain just focused on enhancing the vanilla trees.
