      The bug

      Cactus can generate excessively tall, though it can only grow three blocks high. Fun and harmless generation quirk. Also very old and has been in the game since at least 1.4.7.

      To reproduce

      • Enter any of the following seed and coordinates.
      6-block tall cacti (found by Reddit users, 1.17.1)
      Seed: -1539315707261341838
/execute in minecraft:overworld run tp @s 186.44 73.12 135.50 90.30 34.20

Seed: 840511738247485999
/execute in minecraft:overworld run tp @s -62.64 72.53 77.23 219.00 12.90
      4-block tall cacti (1.18-pre1 – 1.18-pre6)
      Seed: 7394312107885230768
/execute in minecraft:overworld run tp @s -3157.50 75.64 -3922.50 260.24 31.35

      Expected result

      Cactus would only generate up to 3 blocks high.
