Description

Dandelion grows naturally in plains, sunflower plains, flower forests, and birch forests, making it one of the most widespread flowers in the game. It appears as a single-block plant with a bright yellow blossom on a short green stem.

The primary use is crafting yellow dye: place one flower anywhere in a crafting grid to obtain one yellow dye. Yellow dye can recolor wool, terracotta, concrete powder, glass, shulker boxes, candles, beds, and leather armor. One dandelion combined with a bowl and sugar in the crafting grid produces suspicious stew; this variant grants the saturation effect when consumed.

Applying bone meal to a planted flower on grass causes nearby flower patches to spread, generating additional specimens in the surrounding area. Bees visit the flower during foraging flights, incrementing their honey production progress. The item can also be placed in a composter, giving a chance to raise the compost level by one layer.
