Dead Bush block in Minecraft

Present since 1.0 or earlier Stack size: 64

The Dead Bush drops a few sticks without shears and serves as fuel. Dry vegetation grows in deserts and badlands, on sand, terracotta and dirt.

It cannot be crafted; it can be found in chests. As fuel it burns for 5 seconds in a Furnace, enough to smelt 0.5 items.

What it does

These plants break instantly and burn easily. Without shears most of them drop nothing useful, but they add life to arid landscapes and can be composted.
