What is Pitcher Plant in Minecraft?
A pitcher plant is a beautiful, two block tall plant with a unique shape, featuring a large, hooded flower at the top. It is one of the ancient plants you can discover through archeology. Its main purpose is to be a source of cyan dye and a stunning decorative block. Players grow pitcher plants from ancient seeds to get a renewable source of this specific dye color. As a decorative block, its tall and exotic appearance makes it a fantastic addition to gardens, greenhouses, or any build that needs a touch of prehistoric or alien looking flora. It is a trophy plant that shows off a player's dedication to exploration and archeology.
How to get Pitcher Plant in Minecraft
There are two ways to get a pitcher plant. The first and most common way is to grow it yourself. To do this, you need to find a pitcher pod by using a brush on suspicious sand or suspicious gravel in structures like desert pyramids and ocean ruins. Once you have a pitcher pod, plant it on a block of farmland. It will grow through several stages as a pitcher crop. When it is fully mature, it will become the two block tall pitcher plant. The second way is to duplicate one. If you have already grown a pitcher plant, you can use bone meal on it to get a second pitcher plant item. To collect the plant, you can break it with any tool.
How to use Pitcher Plant in Minecraft
The main use for a pitcher plant is to craft it into two pieces of cyan dye. Just place a single pitcher plant anywhere in a crafting grid to get the dye. This is a very efficient way to get cyan dye. For builders, the pitcher plant is a lovely decorative block. You can place it on grass or dirt blocks to make your gardens and landscapes look more unique and full. Because it is two blocks tall, it is great for adding variety and height to your flower beds. You cannot place a pitcher plant in a flower pot because it is too tall. Besides decoration, a pitcher plant can be placed in a composter, where it has a high chance of adding a layer to the compost.
