'''Trees''' are large plants that appear with different roles in the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise. Most of the time, they represent decorative elements. However, they are usually climbable and may hide items, especially in 3D platformers. They are also sometimes used as obstacles.

Interactive trees first appear in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Mario can climb on top of them like poles. In different areas, trees take on different appearances, with the castle's back courtyard and the snowy areas having evergreens. In some cases, climbing to the top causes a [[1-Up Mushroom]] to spawn. In [[Whomp's Fortress]], a tree contains [[Hoot]] in later missions. In ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', Hoot appears in trees in other levels as well.

Trees<ref name=guide>Alan Averill and Jennifer Villarreal. ''Super Mario Sunshine: The Official Nintendo Player's Guide''. Redmond: [[Nintendo of America]], 2002. p. 59. ISBN: 1-930206-23-2.</ref> appear throughout ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. They are occasionally covered in [[goop]] and will sprout up when it is cleared away, although some in [[Gelato Beach]] are simply spawned from spraying in certain areas without the addition of goop. Some trees have a harmless spiky area near the leaves preventing Mario from climbing all the way up one. [[Pianta Village]] is centered around a particularly large tree. A baobab-like tree is in [[Pinna Park]] and resembles a [[Pianta]] head, having some [[Goop#Graffiti|X Graffiti]] on the front and a [[papaya]] dangling from the nose.

Trees with this specific design also appear as background elements in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', two ''Mario'' stages in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' ([[3D Land]] and [[Golden Plains]]) and in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''{{'}}s Story Mode hub.

Climbable trees appear in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', notably in [[Jungle Japes]]. They typically resemble palm trees and are taller than the ones in ''Super Mario 64''. Their leaves also act as a platform.

Interactive trees appear in some of the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' games, such as ''[[Paper Mario]]''. Instead of being climbed, they can be hit with a [[hammer]], potentially causing items to drop from them. In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'' in particular, hammering trees can cause them to drop infinite amounts of [[Confetti]], which is mandatory to progress through the game.
