Minecraft:Large Fern

Template:Infobox block A large fern is the 2-block tall variant of the Minecraft:fern.

Obtaining

Breaking

When Minecraft:broken normally, a large fern has a 12.5% chance of dropping 1 Minecraft:wheat seeds item. This is affected by the Minecraft:Fortune enchantment, dropping 1–3, 1–5, or 1–7 wheat seeds with Fortune I, II, and III respectively.

When broken using Minecraft:shears, a large fern drops two Minecraft:ferns instead.

Placing any block on a large fern breaks the fern and causes it to not drop any Minecraft:wheat seeds. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Large ferns occur naturally only in Minecraft:taiga, Minecraft:snowy taiga, and Minecraft:old growth taiga biomes.

Large ferns can additionally be found around some taiga and snowy taigaTemplate:Only Minecraft:village houses.

Most 2-block tall plants, including large ferns, have a disproportionately large hitbox compared to other plants.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> The only exception to this rule is Minecraft:tall seagrass.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Composting

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

Color

The coloration of large ferns is dependent on the Minecraft:biome they are in. A grass 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.
