Overview
Wither Rose 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. You will need it for Black Dye and Suspicious Stew.
Properties
With 0 blast resistance Wither Rose goes down to any nearby explosion. It is transparent to light and produces no light. Stack size is 64 — the standard full stack. It renews, so a single world will never run out. Fire spreads to it readily (encouragement 60, burn 100), so keep it away from lava and away from anything you would rather not lose.
