On the corner.
I'm terrible at editing but I also find a leaf block will stay and support just like this if its touching the corner of a dirt block. --Hagane17 04:12, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Random Decay
After i read the page on leaves describing the rules of why some leaves are temporary and some arent, so i decided to build a tree temple, i followed the rules exactly but some leaves just died for no reason even though they were attached to supported leaves. I propose a theory of random decay, some leaves just decay at random sometimes. please, if anyone can disprove me, please do so, else i will post this in the Leaves page. --WallShadow 01:20, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I also think they decay randomly (but very slowly) even when they're attached to something. That's how live trees sometimes drop saplings.PurpleKiwi 02:06, 8 October 2010 (UTC)


 * One of the things I noticed while making the images, but didn't end up putting in the explanation, was that adding support/connections to a Temporary leaf block doesn't seem to change its status. At a guess, as soon as it becomes Temporary, a decay timer is set, and it'll go poof at the end, no matter what else happens.  Odds are good you're seeing this effect, but I'd love to see evidence that something's missing from the explanation!  -FunnyMan3595 03:38, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Tool for Breaking Leaves
The sword helps break leaves faster, but we don't have a sword thumbnail... D: PurpleKiwi 23:50, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

The Halloween update
Leaves change colors according to the biome they're in, and they now turn into gray dust when punched, rather than green.. --Vipermagi 13:22, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The grass and leaves texture in terrain.png are now grey and are instead tinted by the game to the correct colour, the destruction particles take the texture from terrain.png and are therefore grey. This is also why the side texture of the grass block is the wrong green, as it is still coloured by terrain.png. --ultradude25 (T 10:30, 1 November 2010 (UTC)

Growing through blocks
Has anyone ever seen this before? I planted a tree roughly in the middle of a 4x5 tower on the other side of this wall. It grew to 14 blocks high (with branches that ran into the walls and stopped), and some of the leaves grew on the other side of a wall. They have remained for several Minecraft days now, and I don't expect they're going to wither at all. Unsurprisingly, two leaf blocks (the bottom right one and the one to its left) did disappear after I removed floor blocks that were directly under them. -WurdBendur 19:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Well seeing as leaf withering is broken in Minecraft since the Halloween update, I doubt they will! – ultradude25 (T 20:22, 7 November 2010 (CST)
 * I should clarify that this is without the update. Other temporary leaves wither as expected. -WurdBendur 22:16, 7 November 2010 (CST)
 * In that case, they'll stay because they are touching a block. They only wither if they aren't touching any blocks. – ultradude25 (T 22:18, 7 November 2010 (CST)
