Tree is one of the more reasonable and down-to-earth contestants, rarely getting swept up in the others' shenanigans. He tends to take the lead, directing others in challenges.

TPOT: Tree is practical, thoughtful, and sometimes, a little sarcastic. He values life and his relationships, especially with Black Hole, and is good at reassuring others that they belong, like he did with Pin in "Seasonal Shift" and "The Power of Four". He is generally friendlier and more outgoing. Tree works hard to keep his team organized and focused, but can get frustrated when things don’t go as planned. Despite this, he always finds creative solutions, like when he stole blocks from other teams in "The Worst Day of Black Hole's Life". This reflects Tree's more active role in this season, helping out with the challenges himself rather than solely relying on Black Hole. He wants his efforts to be appreciated, but he doesn't always express his emotions openly. Tree also adapted to the change in the pact accommodating occasional death much more easily than Black Hole, reflecting his more pragmatic outlook on life.

Despite his kind and inclusive nature, Tree appears to be bigoted against mechanical minds due to being so nature-oriented himself. In "Gardening Zero", Tree says he is not sure Robot Flower counts as a plant, which hurts her feelings. However, this prejudice is first clearly displayed in "Bottle For Dream Island", where Tree leaves TV to be attacked by a robot spider—kicking him towards it—while saving Grassy. He explains that he has to prioritize life, which he evidently does not consider TV a part of. Strangely, this does not appear to affect his close friendship with Remote.

BFB: Tree is stern and reasonable, as shown in "Today's Very Special Episode" when he scolded Pen for immediately going to Black Hole to ask him for help with the challenge. He also refused to help Liy make Teardrop talk in "Getting Teardrop to Talk". Despite this, he is not a very active competitor, mostly turning to Black Hole for assistance in challenges and asking Black Hole for his help whenever Tree is in a dilemma. He was also seen to be a hypocrite for scolding Pen for asking Black Hole first. In general, Tree can be pompous and sometimes lazy, but he is also patient, caring, and dedicated to the pact—despite being stuck inside Bottle from BFB 7 until BFB 12, Tree never broke her to get out.

Tree appears to be an evergreen tree.

His trunk is beige, and his leaves are green, lime, and dark green.

In "The Great Goikian Bake-Off", Tree has a treehouse inside his head, which is hospitable for smaller-sized objects.

(Like most contestants, his limbs are black lines with the hands being round circles and his feet being slightly squashed oval-looking circle shapes. His eyes are black ovals.)

Abilities: • Self resurrection: When his corpse gets enough water to grow, Tree regains his consciousness in a larger, limbless version of himself when recovered instead of a new body being generated.

• Teleportation (Possibly): In "The Power of Four", Tree points to a section on a map and says "Time for a tree family reunion!". This might mean he has the same map teleportation ability as Leafy.

Weaknesses: • Easily Controlled by Mechanism: In "The Power of Four" and "Bottle For Dream Island", after Grassy falls into his leaves, Tree is shown to be easily controlled using his branches similar to a mech-suit.

Woody and Pencil are parts of trees, but Tree is the real thing. He is a tree with leaves, although he seems to be evergreen. It doesn't matter. Tree is not anchored by any roots, but he thinks of himself as a with-it-down-to-earth type of guy; only Loser's charming charisma can sweep him off his feet.

When he sees a problem, Tree knows what not to do, although he hasn't a clue on what he should do. When Tree is fed up, he'll walk away and tell people he's "leafing".

Did You Know?: Tree is a non-coniferous evergreen.

Tree is also called Bonsai, Treeyee and Whispy Woods, in his joining audition. ^ His alternative name of "Whispy Woods" is a reference to the boss of the same name from the Kirby series of games.

Tree's actual first words are the same as Barf Bag's, "Grrrrr!" in "Reveal Novum", where he was mad that he didn't get to join and attacked Announcer by jumping on him. His voice was somewhat low-pitched, which changed after he spoke again in BFB.

Tree's old design is very similar to the tree seen in the Happy Tree Friends logo.

Tree's IDFB design originally had yellow leaves as proven by the IDFB assets file given through Discord by Satomi.

So far, Tree is the only character to be voiced by Thomas Chick.

Tree was the only character that initially did not appear in the first part of the intro sequence. This was changed in "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset". His pose changed an episode later.

In Liy's drawing of her plan to get Teardrop to talk, Tree's position is the same as the one he made in the IDFB intro.

From "The Liar Ball You Don't Want" to "Get to the Top in 500 Steps", Tree was trapped inside Bottle. ^ He was freed in "What Do You Think of Roleplay?" by Taco in his body causing death to Bottle.

Tree is the only character in the BFB intro whose limb/face assets are drawn by Satomi Hinatsu.

According to Pen, he is probably the best thrower of the current Death P.A.C.T. members.

Tree's voice in BFDI sounded very similar to that of Spongy. However, it was obscured by other noises in "Reveal Novum".

An early version of Tree's asset was used in Firey's Candy Bar Adventure.

"Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters" marks the first time Tree died ever since becoming a contestant in "Getting Teardrop to Talk" (He had died once more in "Reveal Novum" but he wasn't a contestant at that time).

His OMG phrase is "Oh my acorn". He also has a WTH phrase, "What the forest".

"Fishes and Dishes" marks the first time Tree has killed another contestant, as he blew up The Strongest Team on Earth. when he kicked Eraser’s breathable bubble into their robotic fish monster.

As shown in The Seven Wonders of Goiky, when Just Not carries Tree's dead body across the desert, the limbs of his dead body will fall off as it is carried. ^ In the same episode, Teardrop also demonstrated that when Tree's dead body is rained on, it will grow into a new tree.

Tree is the second contestant to have an alternative method of recovery. the first contestant is Bubble. ^ In Tree's case, he still needs a recovery center to be recovered, but instead of him coming out of the machine, he comes back in a revived version of his body.

Tree's giant form as of "Balancing P.A.C.T." is most likely an allusion to his BFDI design.

In "I SAID CAREFUL!!!", When Tree's head is covered in snow, he displays a slightly harsher/more condescending personality, possibly poking fun at the "cold personality" the fact that he is covered in snow.

Tree is the only contestant to get into the bottom 2 three times in a row and survive.

If the branches inside of his head are moved, the contestant moving his branches can control Tree, as showcased by Grassy in "The Power of Four."

In "The Power Of Four", Tree was seen sprouting a third arm from his leaves once, it was most likely done for a visual gag, although, it couldn't have been Marker's arm, since in the episode, Tree sprouts a third arm at 9:38, while Marker jumps at him at 9:41

In "Bottle For Dream Island", it is shown that Tree cannot whistle.

Tree has not received a Cake at Stake prize since "The Seven Wonders of Goiky".

Competition: Tree is the only mind swapped character in "What Do You Think of Roleplay?" who didn't get caught by the contestants.

Tree is one of the four contestants to always be on a team named Death P.A.C.T., the others being Pie, Remote, and Black Hole.

Tree, Robot Flower, Puffball, Leafy, and the other members of Death P.A.C.T. Again in TPOT 4 (excluding Lightning) are the only contestants that have purposefully made their teams lose.

Tree and Black Hole are always on the same team together.

Tree is the only contestant to survive three bottom 2s in a row, in "I SAID CAREFUL!!!", "Seasonal Shift", and "The Power of Four" Tree is always in the bottom 2 when Death P.A.C.T. Yet Again is up for voting.

Tree along with Black Hole are the only 2 contestants to have competed on all 3 Death P.A.C.T teams at some point.

Comparisons: Tree is one of the eight contestants who had their minds swapped in "What Do You Think of Roleplay?", the others are Taco, Basketball, Spongy, Puffball, Pin, Lightning, and Rocky.

He, TV, Portable Music Player, Winner, Purple Face, Rubber Spatula, and Two are the only characters who don't have American accents. ^ In Tree's case he speaks with a Cultivated Australian accent, just like Rubber Spatula.

Tree is one of the four plants in BFB. The others are Leafy, Flower, and Grassy.

Tree is one of the four contestants who received a change in limbs after already debuting as a potential contestant (in Tree's case, he gained both arms and legs in BFDIA 13). The other three are Nickel, Fanny, and Lightning.

Tree is one of the five characters who have a location associated with their body. The others are Evil Leafy, Bell, Four, and Yellow Face.

Tree is the third contestant originally with limbs to have been rendered in a completely limbless state in some way, following Pin and Ice Cube, and later followed up by Snowball. ^ He is also the first and so far only character who didn't compete in the first season to suffer this fate.
