Mossy Cobblestone

Moss Stone (previously known as Mossy Cobblestone) is a block that was first introduced in Survival Test and remains in all later versions of the game. It looks like Cobblestone, but with moss growing on it. Like Cobblestone, on the upper left, there is an 'L' that points to the north and east. Their only use is for construction - often used in combination with normal Cobblestone for decoration purposes, such as to make buildings look older or to make Nether portals more eerie. As of 12w22a Moss Stone can be found naturally in Dungeons or in Jungle temples.

The Moss Stone texture uses a pattern similar to that of Netherrack, but with different color schemes, Moss Stone being gray with green moss, and Netherrack being bright-red with dark-red areas.

Trivia

 * It is interesting to note that, while in Beta 1.7, standard Cobblestone patterning changed, Moss Stone's texture remained until 1.8. Also, in 1.7, not only did the contrast change, the top and bottom halves of the texture were swapped. This did not happen to the Moss Stone texture; only the contrast was changed before adding moss.
 * Strangely enough, if using English (UK) or Canadian English (CA) language, Moss Stone is still called Mossy Cobblestone.
 * Moss Stone is in Minecraft Pocket Edition's Creative Mode, but is unobtainable.
