Minecraft is expanding its botanical offerings, recently introducing a delightful new flower known as the Wildflower. Following the earlier addition of Eyeblossoms, this latest floral update bears a striking resemblance to Cherry Blossom petals but is unique in its morphology. Unlike the longer-stemmed Tulips and Daisies, the Wildflower features a more compact design. If you’re eager to learn about these enchanting flowers and how to collect them, keep reading.
Note: This feature is currently in its beta testing phase and playable only in Minecraft Snapshot 25W02A. We will update this page as soon as Mojang releases this feature in the stable version.
Finding Wildflowers in Minecraft
Wildflowers can primarily be found in three specific biomes: Birch Forests, Old Growth Birch Forests, and Meadows. As with other flowers in the game, players can easily break Wildflowers using their hands to collect them.
These charming blooms come in shades of yellow and white and, much like Cherry Blossom petals, occupy one-fourth of a grass block when placed. You can either add more Wildflowers next to the first one or apply bonemeal to increase their number on that block.
However, it’s worth noting that if you overgrow Wildflowers on a grass block using bonemeal, any excess flowers will break off, allowing you to pick them up. This feature makes gathering and arranging Wildflowers a thoughtful yet playful task in your Minecraft world.
Uses of Wildflowers in Minecraft
At this stage, Wildflowers have limited applications within Minecraft. Similar to Dandelions and Sunflowers, players can use Wildflowers to create yellow dye at the Crafting Table.
Interestingly, Wildflowers possess a specific alignment when placed. The orientation in which you place them affects their final appearance, offering players a unique method for enhancing the aesthetics around their bases.
Moreover, like all flowers in the game, Wildflowers attract bees. This interaction results in pollination, allowing more Wildflowers to thrive without the need for bonemeal. Players can also use Wildflowers to breed bees, leading to exciting possibilities.
If a sapling matures into a tree within a two-block radius of a Wildflower, there’s a chance a bee hive will generate, but only if the sapling is a Birch, Oak, or Cherry type.
That wraps up everything you need to know about the Wildflowers in Minecraft. How do you plan to utilize these beautiful additions in your game? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
