Tree Icon Generator

What the tree icon means

Forest, outdoors or growth. Also used for hierarchical tree structures, though that is a weaker convention.

Nature icons are heavily used in sustainability and wellness branding, to the point where a leaf on a green background communicates almost nothing specific. Their shapes are generally good for icon work — a leaf, a droplet and a flame are all single closed forms with strong silhouettes — provided you fill them rather than outline them. The interior detail, such as a leaf vein or an inner flame, is decorative and should be the first thing removed.

Where you will actually see it

• outdoor and park listings
• reforestation and offset programmes
• app icons for nature and forestry products

Drawing the tree at 16 pixels

The layered branch tiers merge into a triangle. That is acceptable — a triangle on a trunk still reads as a conifer.

Stroke weight is the control that matters most here. Lucide icons are drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2px stroke, which means that when the icon is scaled down to 16px the stroke is effectively 1.33px — below one device pixel on a standard-density display. Raising the stroke to 2.5 or 3 before exporting keeps the shape solid; lowering it to 1.5 suits large app icons where a heavy stroke looks clumsy. The editor exposes this as a slider, so you can find the value that survives your smallest target size rather than guessing.

Using it in code

If you want the icon in a Vue project rather than as a downloaded asset, it is a named export of the lucide package:

import { TreePine } from 'lucide-vue-next'

<TreePine :size="24" :stroke-width="2" />

The download button above gives you something different: the icon composed onto a background with a corner radius, exported as a flat SVG path set. The exporter converts the icon out of its <foreignObject> wrapper first, because a foreign object taints an HTML canvas and would otherwise break PNG and ICO rasterisation.
