A lily pad is a thin plant block that floats on the surface of water, letting players and some mobs walk across without building a bridge. It breaks instantly with any tool and pops off when a boat collides with it.

Uses

  • Composter — Placing a lily pad in a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by one, making it a cheap filler item for bone meal production.
  • Water Bridge — Lily pads are the only solid block that does not block fishing bobbers or treasure drops from landing in the water beneath them, so anglers often leave them in place.

Found In

  • Swamps and Mangrove Swamps — Generates naturally scattered across the surface of swamp water.
  • Woodland Mansions — Found decorating the wheat farm rooms of woodland mansions.
  • Wandering Traders — Purchasable in bulk (five pads for one emerald).

Drops

FAQ

What tool do I need to mine a lily pad?

None. Any tool, or bare hands, breaks it instantly since its hardness is zero.

Can I walk on a lily pad?

Yes, players and most mobs can stand on it, though frogs and some other mobs can hop across water lilies without sinking.

Does a boat break a lily pad?

Yes. A boat colliding with a lily pad destroys it and drops the item.

Is a lily pad renewable?

Yes, it can be obtained renewably by fishing (a small chance as a junk item) or purchased from wandering traders.
