Overview
Lilac is a plant block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. It has no crafting recipe — you collect it by mining it where it generates. A hardness of 0 means it is one of the quicker blocks to clear.
No specific tool is required to collect it. Broken correctly, it drops itself. Because it is transparent it does not block light.
A blast resistance of 0 means a single creeper will clear it away. It stacks to 64. It goes into exactly one recipe: Magenta Dye.
Properties
Lilac resists blasts at 0, which is not enough to survive anything explosive nearby. Light passes through it, and it emits none of its own. A single slot takes 64, the usual full stack. It catches easily (encouragement 60, burn 100), so keep lava and open flame well away from it and from anything next to it.
