The world of Minecraft has a variety of flowers and animals that players can find everywhere. We take a look at the Minecraft prickly cactus and its uses in the game.

The diversity of vegetation is very useful to players as it provides raw materials to craft many different items. These also differ in their location and growth, as some are only found in certain biomes and do not grow anywhere else.

The Minecraft Cactus is a plant that is only found in the driest biomes of the world.

Players can grow cacti in Minecraft by using sand, red sand, or by placing it on top of other cactus blocks. Players cannot use bone meal to speed up cactus growth.

Players can harm mobs as well as players and entities that touch them. Each Cactus Pulse deals 1 health damage to monsters and players. This damage is reduced by armor. However, a potted cactus does not cause any harm.

The cactus will also destroy any dropped items or blocks it touches. If a moving minecart hits a cactus, it will also be dropped as an item.
