# Custom trees

## Create the file

To create a custom tree folder, the first command to run is :

```
/scustom trees <foldername>
```

This generates a folder located at  `/plugins/Stratos/customization/trees/`.&#x20;

## Set up trees

To set up trees, use [Stratos Tool](stratos-tool) and put the `xml` files into the created folder `<foldername>`.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Trees don’t have size limitations but bigger trees means longer generation process
{% endhint %}

## Set the trees in your custom biome

Go into the `<biomename>.yml` file you want to add the cave and modify the **trees** property and set it to `<foldername>`.
