Acorn Tree

The Acorn Tree is a tree introduced in New Super Mario Bros. U and is a landmark of Acorn Plains. The tree grows Super Acorns, the item that transforms Mario into Flying Squirrel Mario, and the tree's base itself resembles two acorns. In the beginning of New Super Mario Bros. U, Bowser and the Koopalings invade Princess Peach's Castle, and the former throws Mario, Luigi, Yellow Toad, and Blue Toad far away into Acorn Plains, where the four crash into the Acorn Tree, causing many Super Acorns to fly away to various parts of the land.

In the Acorn Plains map, there are smaller Acorn Trees. There are no differences between these and the large one except that the bases of the smaller trees do not look like acorns.

The Acorn Tree can be seen in the intro, the Acorn Plains map, Acorn Plains Way, briefly in Tilted Tunnel, and finally in Spine-Tingling Spine Coaster.
