What is Azalea in Minecraft?
An azalea is a lovely little leafy bush that works just like a sapling for the big, beautiful azalea tree. It looks like a small shrub with delicate green leaves and thin wooden stems. You can find two different kinds: the regular azalea and the even prettier flowering azalea, which has cute pink blossoms scattered on its leaves. The main job of an azalea is to let you grow your own azalea trees, which are famous for their unique leaves and for being a signpost to the amazing lush caves biome. When you see an azalea tree on the surface, you know a lush cave is hiding right below. Besides being a sapling, the azalea bush itself is a fantastic decorative plant. It is perfect for adding a touch of green to your gardens, landscaping projects, or just putting in a flower pot to brighten up your home.
How to get Azalea in Minecraft
There are several great ways to get your hands on an azalea, so you can start growing your own beautiful trees. The most adventurous method is to find a naturally grown azalea tree out in the world. These special trees only grow on the surface directly above a lush cave biome, acting as a natural signpost. Once you spot one, you can break its leaves with your hand or any tool. There is a small chance that an azalea sapling will drop for you to collect. A much more reliable source is the Wandering Trader. This mysterious merchant, with his two llamas, will sometimes appear near you and offer to sell an azalea for one emerald. This is a fantastic shortcut if you are having trouble finding the right biome. Another way is to go directly into a lush cave. You will find azalea bushes growing naturally on the moss blocks that cover the floors and ceilings. The final method lets you farm them yourself. If you get a moss block, you can place it down and use bone meal on it. This will cause a patch of lush vegetation to spread, including grass, tall grass, and a chance for azalea or flowering azalea bushes to pop up. You can then just break the bush to collect it.
How to use Azalea in Minecraft
The main reason to have an azalea is to grow a full azalea tree. You can plant it on dirt, grass, podzol, or a moss block. It needs some light and space to grow, but if you are in a hurry, just give it some bone meal and it will shoot up into a full tree instantly. This new tree will have oak logs and beautiful azalea leaves, and it will even turn the block it grew on into rooted dirt. This is a great way to farm wood and leaves. The other big use for an azalea is decoration. It is a wonderful little plant that looks great in gardens or as part of a natural landscape. You can also put an azalea in a flower pot to create a lovely, simple decoration for inside your house. Like other small flowers, azaleas can also be used with bees. You can use them to breed bees and to lead them around if you are holding one.
