Minecraft:Mangrove Leaves: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:23, 29 September 2026

Template:Infobox block Mangrove leaves are biome-colored Minecraft:leaves that form the canopy of Minecraft:mangrove trees. They can grow Minecraft:mangrove propagules by applying Minecraft:bone meal.

Obtaining

Breaking

Minecraft:Hoes are the default tools for breaking leaves, but leaves can be obtained only with Minecraft:shears or tools Minecraft:enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch.

Template:Breaking row

Without shears, mangrove leaves can drop 1—2 Minecraft:sticks. Minecraft:Fortune increases the chance. They do not drop Minecraft:mangrove propagules.

Drop	No Fortune	Fortune I	Fortune II	Fortune III
1-2 Template:ItemLink	2% (Template:Frac)	2.22% (Template:Frac)	2.5% (Template:Frac)	3.33% (Template:Frac)

Natural generation

Mangrove leaves occur naturally on their Minecraft:mangrove trees in Minecraft:mangrove swamps. They also appear in the entrance room of some Minecraft:trial chambers.

Template:Block distribution

Post-generation

Template:See also Mangrove leaves generate as part of mangrove trees grown from Minecraft:mangrove propagules.

Usage

Template:Main Mangrove leaves that decay have the same drop chances as when broken by players, yielding Minecraft:sticks 2% of the time, and otherwise nothing. They do not drop Minecraft:mangrove propagules. Instead, applying Minecraft:bone meal to mangrove leaves with a space beneath produces a hanging mangrove propagule with age=0.

Smelting ingredient

Redstone component

Template:Exclusive The state of a leaves block—including a player-placed block—changes after 1 game tick (half a redstone tick) when the distance to the nearest Minecraft:log or Minecraft:wood block changes, up to 6 blocks of leaves away. Minecraft:Observers facing away from the leaves detect this change and transmit a redstone signal in the same game tick, making leaves useful for redstone signal transmission.

Piston interactivity

Leaves are destroyed when pushed by Minecraft:pistons. They do not stick to Minecraft:sticky pistons, Minecraft:slime blocks, or Minecraft:honey blocks.

Composting

Mangrove leaves have a 30% chance of increasing the compost level in a Minecraft:composter by 1. A stack of leaves yields an average of 3.05 Minecraft:bone meal.

Color

Template:Main Template:Needs render Mangrove leaves have unique colors based on the Minecraft:biome they are placed in.

In the inventory, mangrove leaves are colored Template:Color in Java Edition, or use pre-colored textures in Bedrock Edition.

Biome colors

These values are generated by the biome dyeing algorithm. Template:IN, biome colors also appear on Minecraft:maps.

Snowy leaves

Trees in a snowy biome during snowfall in Bedrock Edition

In any biome with a base temperature of below 0.15, mangrove leaves gradually fade to white once Minecraft:snowfall begins, giving them a frosted appearance for the storm's duration. During transition, the white color is blended with the regular color in eight steps. After snowfall ends, leaves gradually fade back to their normal coloration.

This does not affect leaves in biomes with a higher base temperature, even at altitudes that allow snowfall. The change is entirely invisible to the client if the graphics mode is set to Simple, though it still takes place, and leaves are the correct color phase for the time if the option is re-enabled.

Trivia

Occasionally, leaves grow through other blocks, acting as though they are still connected to the tree. They may also completely replace blocks they try to grow into.
Some trees seem to occasionally drop saplings without being destroyed due to creation of leaf blocks not supported by logs.

 == Usage ==
-Leaves from trees spontaneously decay (disappear) when they receive a [[Minecraft:Tick#Random tick|block tick]] if they are not connected to any [[Minecraft:log]] or [[Minecraft:wood]] blocks, stripped or otherwise, either directly or via other leaf blocks, with a maximum distance of 6 blocks{{only|je}} or 4 blocks.{{only|be}} {{IN|je}}, this is determined using the {{cd|prevents_nearby_leaf_decay}} [[Minecraft:block tag]], whereas {{in|BE}}, the list of blocks is hardcoded. The distance is taxicab distance, but can cross corners. Leaves placed by players never decay. [[Minecraft:Bamboo]] does not count as a log for this purpose.

-Leaves are always [[Minecraft:transparent]] to [[Minecraft:light]] but cannot be seen through when the [[Minecraft:graphics]] is set to "Fast" or [[Minecraft:Settings#Video|fancy leaves]] are turned off; the transparent regions are instead dark green. Leaves that are entirely surrounded by full blocks also render opaque in ''Bedrock Edition''. They diffuse sky light, causing the shadows they cast under trees.
-Leaf blocks can be [[Minecraft:Waterlogging|waterlog]]ged although they are full blocks. Water does not spread out,{{only|je}} and waterlogged leaves follow the same rules as any other [[Minecraft:Waterlogging#Mechanism|waterlog]]ged block. When [[Minecraft:concrete powder]] is placed on any side of the waterlogged leaves it turns into [[Minecraft:concrete]], and the leaf block remains waterlogged.
-Although leaves behave as solid blocks by preventing entities from moving through them, they also behave as non-solid, in that leaves do not prevent chests from opening.
