Finding one
- Look for an Azalea tree, a small tree with pink-flowered leaves.
- Follow the rooted dirt and hanging roots down from it.
- Dig straight down and you'll reach the lush cave.
What's inside
- Moss block floors and ceilings, with moss carpet and azalea bushes.
- Cave vines with glow berries for light and food.
Spore blossom flowers dropping green particles.- Clay pools with dripleaf, axolotls, glow squid and tropical fish.
Moss spreadsUse bone meal on moss and it spreads to stone and dirt around it, plus grows plants. Great for making moss in bulk.
Dripleaf
Big dripleaf plants are leaves you can stand on, but they tip over after a moment. They're fun parkour in builds.
Axolotls
Catch axolotls from the water pools with a water bucket. They're the only mob that spawns just in lush caves.
Monsters still spawnLush caves are pretty, but hostile mobs can still spawn in the dark parts. Light it up before building.
