Poppies, the iconic red flowers, replaced the original "rose" and cyan flowers in game updates. They're found across 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 thrive in most biomes (excluding marshes and ice plains), particularly 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 items.
Allium

Tall, red rose bushes grace various wooded biomes. Like lilacs and sunflowers, they're among Minecraft's taller flowers. They yield red dye, useful for dyeing wool, banners, beds, and leather armor. A safe and visually appealing addition to any landscape.
Wither Rose

The ominous wither rose doesn't grow naturally; it appears when mobs are 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 coloring leather armor, terracotta, banners, beds, and wool, as well as firework stars and black concrete powder.
Peony Bush
