Bush
minecraft:bushBush is a decorative plant block whose foliage color matches the surrounding grass, found in forests, plains, and windswept biomes. It only drops itself when broken with shears or a Silk Touch tool.
Uses

Found In

- Abandoned camps — Also appears as decoration in abandoned camp structures found in birch, flower, and regular forests.

FAQ
What tool do I need to collect a Bush?
Shears are the fastest tool and the only way, along with Silk Touch, to make it drop itself — breaking it any other way yields nothing.
Why does my Bush look a different color elsewhere?
Bush foliage is biome-colored, matching the local grass tint, so the same block looks different in a swamp versus a plains biome.
Can I grow more Bushes with bone meal?
Yes. Applying bone meal to a Bush attempts to grow another Bush on a neighboring valid block.
When was Bush added to Minecraft?
It debuted in Java Edition snapshot 25w05a, part of the 1.21.5 update, and later came to Bedrock Edition in 1.21.70.
