Dead Bushes are not a solid block, but rather an aesthetic weed that does not obstruct movement, similar to Sugar Cane, Wheat and Tall Grass.

Dead Bushes will only spawn on Sand blocks in desert biomes and rarely in swamp biomes. They do not produce any resources when broken.

Uses

The only current use for this item is decoration and can be obtained with an inventory editor, the /give command, by mining with an axe with a Silk Touch enchantment in the 1.9 pre-release, or with shears. It can also be used in the Creative mode of Beta 1.8.

History

Dead Bushes were added in the Beta 1.6 update. In the Beta 1.8 pre-release 1, they were placeable in the creative gamemode and from the Beta 1.8 pre-release 2 they have an official name.

Trivia

  • The dead shrub texture is the sapling texture, with its leaves removed and slightly modified.
  • A variant of Tall Grass is visually identical to Dead Bushes but is able to give seeds and has a offset from the ground, like tall grass. The edited tall grass can be obtained by using bonemeal on a block of grass near sand (although they will only spawn on said sand).
  • If the block below a dead bush is removed, the bush will disappear.
