Lush Caves

A lush cave is a temperate Overworld cave biome that has a unique fauna and flora and is found underground below azalea trees.

Description
Azalea trees generate on any empty space above a lush cave, with roots consisting of rooted dirt and hanging roots that generate down until reaching the lush cave. This is most common at the surface, but they can sometimes generate inside caves if there is enough room and a lush cave below. In Bedrock Edition, the grass and foliage take a light green color, the same from mushroom fields biomes.

If a biome other than a jungle has random vines on the side of the terrain then it is a lush cave biome, so if you see a desert with vines then there is a lush cave biome there.

Underground, moss and ores covers the floors and ceilings, along with moss carpets, grass and azalea bushes on the floors. On the ceiling, vines and cave vines with glow berries grow down and light up the caves, and spore blossoms grow from the ceiling and drip water particles. A lush cave contains springs and shallow lakes with clay where dripleaf plants grow out of them. Sometimes these lakes generate dry.
