'''Dead bushes''' are transparent [[block]]s in the form of an aesthetic [[plants|plant]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Breaking ===

Dead bushes [[drop]] 0–2 [[stick]]s when broken without [[shears]], or when the block below it is removed. When shears are used, a dead bush drops itself.

=== Natural generation ===
Dead bushes generate on [[sand]], [[red sand]], [[podzol]], [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]] and [[terracotta]] in [[desert]]s, [[badlands]], and [[old growth taiga]]s.
Dead bushes generate twice as commonly in [[desert]] biomes as they do in [[old growth taiga]]s, and 10 times more often in badlands than they do in deserts (ratio of 1:2:20 – taiga:desert:badlands). Dead bushes can also generate in [[swamp]] biomes.

Dead bushes can be found inside flower pots inside some [[desert]] [[village]] houses.

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|dead-bush}}

== Usage ==
Dead bushes can be used for aesthetic decoration, as a source of [[stick]]s and a [[fuel]] source. They can be placed on any kind of [[sand]], [[terracotta]], [[dirt]], [[podzol]] and [[mud]]; they can also be placed on [[grass block]]s, [[mycelium]], and [[moss block]]s. They can also be planted in [[flower pot]]s. Dead bushes do not spread, and cannot be grown using [[bone meal]].

Unlike most plants, dead bushes cannot be [[Composter#Composting|composted]].<ref>{{bug|MC-219904}}</ref>

=== Smelting ===
Dead bushes can be used as [[fuel]], [[smelting]] one [[item]] per dead bush.

* Dead bushes are the only [[plant]]-like [[block]]s that are [[non-renewable resource|non-renewable]], except for [[spore blossom]]s.
