Trees

Oak and dark oak leaves have 0.5% (¹⁄₂₀₀) chance of dropping an apple when decayed or broken. This amounts to approximately 25% (¹⁄₄) chance to get an apple from an oak tree and 60% chance from a dark oak tree. Breaking leaves with a tool enchanted with the Fortune enchantment increases the chances of dropping an apple: 0.556% (¹⁄₁₈₀) with Fortune I, 0.625% (¹⁄₁₆₀) with Fortune II, and 0.833% (¹⁄₁₂₀) with Fortune III.
