Bright yellow dandelions flourish in most biomes (excluding marshes and ice plains). Found frequently 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.

The ominous wither rose doesn't grow naturally; it spawns when a mob is killed by the Wither or rarely appears 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
