Living with the Land’s Breadfruit Tree No Longer on Display
The landscape of Walt Disney World continues to shift, and EPCOT’s Living with the Land is the latest attraction to see a significant change. Joining the list of recent removals across the resort—including the upcoming overhaul of the Rivers of America and the closure of DINOSAUR—the greenhouse’s iconic breadfruit tree is officially gone. We caught a glimpse of the empty plot during a recent boat ride.

Beyond its botanical importance, the breadfruit tree was a visual anchor for the attraction, serving as the iconic backdrop for the Glimmering Greenhouses holiday overlay and the defining feature of the greenhouse entrance. According to Cast Members we spoke with, the tree had simply outgrown its home, posing a potential risk to the attraction’s infrastructure.
While the rest of the tree will be composted, the team was able to salvage the trunk. Though no official replacement has been named, it is expected that a new, smaller breadfruit tree will eventually take its place. In the meantime, the view into the greenhouse looks remarkably different.
What do you think of the missing tree?
