A lily pad is a short, flat non-solid block that can be found naturally growing only on water, in swamps and wheat farm rooms in woodland mansions.

Obtaining[edit]

Breaking[edit]

Lily pads can be instantly mined with anything. They also break when collided with a boat.

Natural generation[edit]

Lily pads can be found naturally on water in swamps and wheat farm rooms of woodland mansions.

Fishing[edit]

Lily pads can be obtained as a "treasure"‌[Bedrock Edition only] or "junk"‌[Java Edition only] item while fishing.

Trading[edit]

Wandering traders can sell lily pads in sets of 2 for one emerald.

Usage[edit]

Lily pads can be used to make paths over water without having to build bridges or use full blocks. Lily pads are broken and drop as an item when water flows on it. Mobs cannot spawn on lily pads.

Normal blocks can be placed on the bottom side of lily pads (from below). This breaks the lily pad (dropping it as an entity), but leaves the block in place. Blocks can also be placed on top of lily pads, though the placed block appears to hover over the pad rather than rest on it.[1]

A lily pad can be used as a starting point for construction on an ocean surface without having to build up from the ocean floor.

Placement[edit]

Lily pads can be placed only on top of water, ice or frosted ice. Lily pads occupy the block above water and are not part of the water block itself. It changes texture when placed on water.

Lily pads must be directly planted on the top of a water, ice or frosted ice block; unlike most blocks, targeting the side of a block that would result in it being placed on top of a valid block does not allow it to be placed.[2]

A lily pad faces a consistent direction that depends on its location; it is unaffected by the direction the player faces. Replacing a lily pad does not change the direction.

In Bedrock Edition, unlike most blocks entities can collide with, lily pads can be placed directly inside players.[3][4]

Composting[edit]

Placing a lily pad into a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Appearance[edit]

  • In the inventory, lily pads have the color:
     #71c35c.
  • Otherwise, lily pads have the color:
     #208030.

Trivia[edit]

  • When lily pads are placed on water source blocks that do not take up the space of the entire block (when the water is flowing to the block next to it), the lily pad appears floating above the water source block.
  • Lily pads are the only block whose height is not a multiple of 1/16 (size of one pixel on the default texture pack). It is 1.5 pixels high, or 0.09375 or 3/32 blocks high.
  • If the player sprints[verify] or falls on lily pads, they appear to give off water particles. This is because the game thinks the player is technically on the water below the lily pad.[8][9]
