Poppies, the iconic red flowers, replaced the original rose and cyan flowers in game updates. They naturally spawn in various biomes and are occasionally dropped by Iron Golems. Their primary use is crafting red dye, vital for coloring banners, beds, wool, sheep, and wolf collars.

Dandelion

Bright yellow dandelions flourish in most biomes (excluding marshes and ice plains), particularly flower forests. They yield one unit of yellow dye (sunflowers produce two). Use them to add a cheerful touch to banners, wool, and other decorations.

Allium

Alliums, striking purple flowers found in flower forests, are the source of magenta dye. This dye is essential for coloring mobs and crafting magenta stained glass, terracotta, and wool, enhancing any build.

Rose Bush

Tall, red rose bushes thrive in various wooded biomes. Like lilacs and sunflowers, they are two-blocks tall. They produce red dye, used for dyeing wool, banners, beds, leather armor, and more. Unlike the Wither Rose, they are a safe and attractive landscaping element.

Wither Rose

The ominous Wither Rose doesn't grow naturally; it spawns when a mob is killed by the Wither or rarely in the Nether. Touching it inflicts the Wither effect (curable with milk). It's used to create black dye for leather armor, terracotta, banners, beds, wool, firework stars, and black concrete powder.

Peony Bush

Pink peony bushes flourish in woodland biomes. They produce pink dye (also craftable from red and white dye) and can be propagated with bone meal. Pink dye is used for wool, stained glass, terracotta, and wolf collars. Bone meal can also encourage pink peony growth in certain biomes.

Lily of the Valley

Delicate Lily of the Valley flowers grow in forests and flower forests. They yield white dye, used for wool, banners, beds, terracotta, and wolf collars. White dye is also a base for creating other dyes.

Tulip

Tulips come in red, orange, white, and pink varieties, found in plains and flower forests. Their color determines the dye they produce (red, pink, orange, or light gray), offering diverse crafting options.

Azure Bluet

Small, white and yellow Azure Bluets grow in grasslands, sunflower plains, and flower forests. They create light gray dye (also craftable from bone meal and gray dye).

Blue Orchid

Rare blue orchids are found in swamps and taigas, yielding light blue dye.

Cornflower

Cornflowers, blue flowers found in plains and flower forests, produce blue dye for wool, glass, and terracotta.

Torchflower

Torchflowers, grown from seeds, produce orange dye. They don't naturally spawn and (in Bedrock Edition) cannot be spread with bone meal. In Java Edition, Endermen can carry and drop them.

Lilac

Tall, light-purple lilacs are found in various forest biomes, producing magenta dye.

Oxeye Daisy

Oxeye Daisies, white flowers with yellow centers found in plains, create light gray dye for wool, leather armor, and glass. They can also be used decoratively on banners.

Sunflower

Tall sunflowers, found in sunflower plains, produce yellow dye. Their east-facing orientation makes them useful for navigation.

These flowers offer a wealth of possibilities in Minecraft, from dyeing to decorative applications. Explore their potential and enhance your gameplay!
