Muddy mangrove roots are a decorative variant of mangrove roots with dirt-like properties.

Obtaining

Breaking

Muddy mangrove roots can be broken by hand, but using a shovel speeds up the process. They have the highest hardness value of all blocks having the shovel as the suitable tool.

Muddy mangrove roots drop themselves when broken with any tool.

Natural generation

Muddy mangrove roots naturally generate in mangrove swamps where mud blocks intersect with normal mangrove roots at the bottom of mangrove trees. They can also generate in some entrance rooms of trial chambers.

Mob loot

Post-generation

When a mangrove propagule grows into a tree, if the tree roots intersect with nearby mud blocks, those mud blocks are converted into muddy mangrove roots.

Usage

Muddy mangrove roots are primarily used as decoration. They are orientable and can be rotated on any axis, facing perpendicular to whichever side of a block they are placed on.

Farming

Muddy mangrove roots have the ability to grow saplings, sugar cane, sweet berries, and bamboo, which can be planted directly on them under appropriate conditions. Saplings convert muddy mangrove roots into dirt when grown,‌[Bedrock Edition only] and azalea trees grown on muddy mangrove roots convert them into rooted dirt.
