Fern is a plant of rainforests that shares its block id with tall grass.

Obtaining

Natural generation

Ferns generate only in Rainforest. Two in three of its 10 tall grass patches per chunk are ferns.

Breaking

Breaking a fern drops seeds one time in eight, and nothing otherwise, whatever breaks it.

Behaviour

A fern stands on grass, dirt or farmland, and needs light 8 or more, or open sky, to stay.

A fern that cannot stay breaks when a block beside it changes, or on its next random tick.

A fern burns. Flowing water breaks it, and flowing lava destroys it.

A fern is tinted as tall grass is.
