Obtaining[edit]
Natural generation[edit]
Rooted dirt can generate in azalea trees. This may continue for more than a stack mainly-vertically downward under the trunk base/stump.
Post-generation[edit]
In Bedrock Edition, single rooted dirt replaces grass blocks, dirt or coarse dirt below oak logs where azalea trees are grown from azalea or flowering azalea.
Breaking[edit]
Rooted dirt can be mined with any tool or without a tool.

Hardness | 0.5 | |

Trading[edit]
Wandering traders can sell 2 rooted dirt for 1 emerald.
Usage[edit]
Much like coarse dirt, neither mycelium or grass can spread onto rooted dirt. Plants can also not be placed or grown on top of it.
While it yields itself when dug, it does not convert into dirt after a block is placed onto it.
Rooted dirt blocks can be converted into dirt path blocks by using any type of shovel on the side or top of a rooted dirt with air above it.
Hanging roots[edit]
Using bonemeal on rooted dirt causes hanging roots to grow below the block, if space is available for it to grow.
In Bedrock Edition using a hoe on rooted dirt turns it into normal dirt and drops one hanging roots.
Sounds[edit]
Its sound is between that of wooden planks and dirt variants.
