Wildflowers
Wildflowers is a renewable flower block (duplicated with bone meal) added in Minecraft Java 1.21.5, growing up to four stems in a single block space in birch forests and meadows.
Description
Wildflowers breaks instantly by hand with hardness 0 and blast resistance 0, stacks to 64, and is flammable like other small plants. The main crafting use of Wildflowers is Yellow Dye, mirroring the dandelion recipe, which makes Wildflowers a renewable source of yellow color alongside dandelions and sunflowers. Builders use Wildflowers for layered meadow ground cover and bright birch-forest clearings, where the clustered stems fill gaps between tall grass and ferns without the tall hitbox of a two-block flower.
