Let's explore the characteristics of the Warped Forest biome.

Weather

Since the Warped Forest is in the Nether dimension, there is no weather.

Tree-like Structures

In the Warped Forest biome, you will find a new tree-like structure made out of Warped Stem for the trunk, Warped Wart Blocks as the leaves, and Shroomlights can be found growing within its leaves.

The trunk of this tree-like structure is basically the Nether's version of a log. What makes this type of tree so unique (compared to Overworld trees such as oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak) is that any item that you craft out of this type of tree can not be destroyed by fire.

Vegetation

The Warped Forest biome has a unique set of vegetation such as warped fungus, warped roots, and nether sprouts:
