21w16a is the eighteenth snapshot for Java Edition 1.17, released on April 21, 2021,[1] which adds dripstone growth and the ability to grow azalea trees.
Additions
Gameplay
Pointed dripstone growth
- If a stalactite is hanging from a dripstone block with a water source above, it slowly grows both the stalactite from above and a stalagmite from below.
- Growth speed is random but very slow; a single growth step can take several in-game days.
- A stalactite only grows up to 7 blocks long.
- A stalactite only causes stalagmite growth if the floor or stalagmite below is within 10 blocks.
- If the stalactite tip is inside water it doesn't drip, and therefore doesn't trigger any growth.
- If the stalagmite tip is inside water or there is a fluid between the two dripstone blocks, it doesn't receive the water drops, and therefore doesn't grow by a dripping stalactite.
- A stalagmite or stalactite never grows into a fluid.
General
- Added the
moss_replaceableblock tag.- Contains the #base_stone_overworld tag, the #cave_vines tag, and the #dirt tag.

- Added Chinese Traditional (Hong Kong) language.
