Waterleaf is a type of herb which appears as a small, turquoise-colored sprout. It grows naturally on Sand and Pearlsand Blocks, but will never spawn in the Ocean biome.[1] Waterleaf can be harvested with virtually any weapon or tool, and can be planted manually using Waterleaf Seeds in Clay Pots and Planter Boxes, or on suitable soil tiles.

Waterleaf blooms when it is raining. Its blooming is indicated by turquoise leaves and little water particles emitted. Harvesting blooming Waterleaf yields 1 Waterleaf item and 1–3 Waterleaf Seeds. Harvesting mature or blooming Waterleaf with the Staff of Regrowth or Axe of Regrowth yields 1–2 Waterleafs and 1–5 Waterleaf Seeds instead. Note that these tools can only directly harvest mature stage herbs planted on soil; see Herbs § Growth for details.

Both Waterleaf and Waterleaf Seeds have a chance to be obtained from the Herb Bag.

Notes

Trivia

  • The Waterleaf takes the longest to bloom out of all the herbs.
  • It bears no resemblance whatsoever to the real-life leaf vegetable Talinum fruticosum, which is also often called waterleaf.
