Template:For Template:Infobox block Ferns are a non-solid plant Minecraft:block found only in certain biomes and have the same characteristics as grass.

Obtaining

Breaking

When broken normally, ferns have a 12.5% chance of dropping 1 unit of wheat seeds when destroyed. This is affected by the Fortune enchantment, dropping 1-3, 1-5, or 1-7 wheat seeds respectively with Fortune I, II, and III.

Ferns can be obtained as an item if mined by Minecraft:shears. Large ferns also drop two ferns when broken using shears. Template:Breaking row

Ferns occur naturally only in jungle, taiga, snowy taiga and old growth taiga biomes.

Grazing

When a sheep eats a fern, the block is destroyed, and a sheared sheep regrows its Minecraft:wool. Baby sheep graze grass and ferns much more often than adults and mature 1 minute faster when grazing.

Composting

Placing a fern into a Minecraft:composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Bone meal

Bone meal can be used on a fern to create a large fern.

Color

The coloration of ferns and potted ferns is dependent on the Minecraft:biome they are in. A block always uses the color set to its location, regardless of how it was placed or of its source. This affects the side and top of the block.

Template:IN, biome colors also appear on maps.<ref>Template:Cite bug</ref>

Item

Template:IN, fern items use biome color with temperature 0.5, downfall 1.0, and as a result is colored Template:Color. Template:IN, this color is coded in the item's texture.

Biome colors

These values are generated by the biome dyeing algorithm. See biome colors for more information.
