How To Find Cactus Flower in Minecraft
Cacti are a familiar sight in *Minecraft*, commonly found in dry areas like Deserts and Badlands. While they can be a nuisance due to their damaging thorns, they're also useful for crafting Green Dye and breeding Camels. The new Cactus Flower adds an exciting twist to these prickly plants. This vibrant pink flower has a chance to spawn on top of Cacti in the Desert and Badlands biomes, making it a striking addition to these less colorful regions.

Venturing out to find resources can be tedious, so it's great that you can cultivate Cactus Flowers right at home. To do this, plant Cacti in the ground; the taller the Cactus, the higher the chance of a Cactus Flower spawning. Remember, a Cactus must be at least two blocks high to have a chance of growing a flower. Additionally, ensure there's space on all four sides of the Cactus to allow the flower to grow. With the right setup, you'll soon see Cactus Flowers blooming, ready for use.
