Lily Pad

The Lily Pad is a block in the 1.9 pre-release, found growing in water inside swamp biomes. Lily pads are walkable, but apart from this, little else is known about them.

Breaking the lily pad will place it in your inventory. It can be replaced, but only on top of swamp water, and only by placing it against a block that is above, and adjacent to, the water surface. It may be placed on top of a flowing spring block.

Lily pads are not craftable. Cutting the block with shears will not do anything.

Trivia

 * In 1.9pre2, placing a block on top of the lily pad will cause the block to appear to be floating. This is due to the fact that the lily pad consumes a whole block.
