What is Cornflower in Minecraft?
The cornflower is a pretty blue flower that you can find growing in the wild. It is a tall flower with a bright blue top. Its main purpose in Minecraft is to be a source of blue dye. Before the cornflower was added, getting blue dye was much harder because you had to find rare lapis lazuli ore underground. Now, you can just pick a cornflower to easily get blue dye for all your coloring needs. Players use the cornflower to color things like wool, beds, glass, and banners. It is also a lovely decorative block. You can plant it in a flower pot to brighten up your house or place it in your garden to add a splash of color. The cornflower is a simple but very useful flower for both crafters and builders who want to add some blue to their world.
How to get Cornflower in Minecraft
Getting a cornflower is quite easy because it grows naturally in a few common biomes. You can find the cornflower in Plains, Sunflower Plains, and Flower Forest biomes. Just walk around these areas and you are sure to spot them. When you find one, you can break it with your hand or any tool to pick it up. If you want to farm a lot of them, you can use bone meal on a grass block in one of those biomes, and cornflowers might grow. Another way to get a cornflower is from the Wandering Trader. This special villager sometimes appears near you and might offer to sell you a cornflower for one emerald. You can also find cornflowers in chests in some villages. So, the easiest way is to just explore a plains biome and pick them. Once you have one, you can use it to start your own little flower garden or dye farm.
How to use Cornflower in Minecraft
The main use for a cornflower is to craft blue dye. Simply place a single cornflower in a crafting grid, and you will get one piece of blue dye. This dye can then be used to color all sorts of items, like beds, carpets, and concrete. For builders, the cornflower is a great decorative block. You can place it on any grass or dirt block to make your gardens and landscapes look more beautiful. You can also put a cornflower in a flower pot to create a nice indoor decoration. If you are a beekeeper, bees will fly to a cornflower to collect pollen, which helps them make honey in their beehives. Finally, the cornflower can be used to make suspicious stew. If you craft a stew with a cornflower, anyone who eats it will get the Jump Boost effect for a few seconds, letting them jump extra high.
