Short Grass is a one-block-tall non-solid plant that generates densely across Plains, Forest, Taiga, Savanna and most other grassy biomes in Minecraft. It was renamed from "Grass" to "Short Grass" in Java Edition 1.20.3 to remove the long-standing confusion with the Grass Block, and Bedrock Edition followed with the same rename in 1.21.30. The plant can be placed on Grass Block, Dirt, Coarse Dirt, Podzol, Mycelium, Rooted Dirt, Moss Block and Farmland, and it breaks instantly with bare hands or any tool. Breaking Short Grass has roughly a 1/8 chance of dropping Wheat Seeds, which is one of the earliest renewable seed sources at the start of a survival world. Using Bone Meal on a Grass Block grows additional Short Grass, Tall Grass and biome-appropriate flowers in a 15x5x15 area on Java Edition and a 7x5x7 area on Bedrock Edition, centered on the target block. Short Grass is flammable and burns away when touched by lava or fire. Breaking it with Shears yields the plant itself for decorative transplanting. It also provides decorative ground cover for builds, paths and farms.
