Rooted dirt is a natural decorative block.

Obtaining

Rooted dirt can generate in azalea trees. This may continue for more than a stack mainly-vertically downwards under the trunk base /stump.

Breaking

Rooted dirt can be mined with any tool or without a tool.

Block Rooted Dirt
Hardness 0.5
Breaking time (secs)
Default 0.75

Usage

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. It is pinkish brown.
