Poppy

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

Bright yellow dandelions flourish in most biomes (excluding marshes and ice plains). Found abundantly in flower forests, they're a key source of yellow dye (sunflowers yield double the amount). Perfect for adding a sunny touch to banners, wool, and other decorative elements.
Allium

The striking purple allium, native to flower forests, produces magenta dye. This dye is crucial for recoloring mobs and crafting magenta stained glass, terracotta, and wool, adding elegance to any build.
Rose Bush

Rose bushes, tall red flowers found in various wooded biomes, are another of Minecraft's two-block-high flowers. They yield red dye, useful for dyeing wool, banners, beds, and leather armor. Unlike the dangerous wither rose, rose bushes are a safe and visually appealing landscaping choice.
Wither Rose

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

Peony bushes, tall pink flowers found in woodland biomes, produce pink dye (also craftable from red and white dye). They can be propagated with bone meal, offering unlimited cultivation. Pink dye is used for coloring wool, stained glass, terracotta, and wolf collars. Bone meal can also cause pink flowers to grow in certain biomes.
Lily of the Valley

The delicate Lily of the Valley, found in forest and flower forest biomes, yields white dye. This dye is used for coloring wool, banners, beds, terracotta, and wolf collars, and is also a base for crafting other dyes (gray, light gray, light blue, lime, magenta, and pink).
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 customization options.
Azure Bluet

The small, white and yellow Azure Bluet, found in grasslands, sunflower plains, and flower forests, creates light gray dye (also craftable from bone meal and gray dye).
Blue Orchid

The rare Blue Orchid, found only in swamp and taiga biomes, is a source of light blue dye.
Cornflower

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

Torchflowers, grown from seeds, yield orange dye. They don't naturally generate and cannot be spread with bone meal in Bedrock Edition. In Java Edition, endermen can carry and drop them. They are suitable for flower pots.
Lilac

Lilacs, tall, light-purple flowers found in various forest biomes, produce magenta dye.
Oxeye Daisy

The Oxeye Daisy, a white flower with a yellow center found in plains biomes, yields light gray dye for dyeing wool, leather armor, and glass. It can also be used decoratively on banners.
Sunflower

Sunflowers, found in sunflower plains biomes, produce yellow dye. Their eastward orientation makes them useful for navigation.
