Legend

• incorrect tool, drops nothing
• correct tool, drops nothing or something other than the block itself
• correct tool, drops the block itself
• italicized can be instant mined

Pink petals are also removed and drop as an item if:

• its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed.
• water or lava flows into its space.
• a piston tries to push it or moves a block into its space.
• it is placed on a mud block, and that mud block converts to clay.

The amount of pink petal items dropped is equal to how many were present in the block space beforehand (i.e. a pink petal block with 3 placed will drop 3 pink petal items when destroyed).

Natural generation

Pink petals generate naturally in cherry groves.

If a village should appear in a cherry grove biome, it is possible for the petals to be growing on dirt path blocks, similar to short grass.

Post-generation

Each time bone meal is applied to pink petals, the number of petals in the block increases by 1. If there are already four pink petals in the block, it drops a copy of itself, similar to tall flowers.

Pink petals also generate when bone meal is applied to a grass block in cherry groves.‌^{[JE only][1]}

Usage

A pink petal may be placed on grass blocks, podzol, mycelium, dirt, coarse dirt, rooted dirt, moss blocks, mud, muddy mangrove roots, or farmland. Pink petals are used for decoration, and can be crafted into pink dye.

More than one pink petal can be placed on a block, similar to other blocks such as sea pickles and candles. Up to four pink petals can be placed in a group on one block.

Sheep can consume the grass under pink petals without breaking the petals.

Unlike leaf litter, pink petals cannot be used as fuel in a furnace.

Crafting ingredient

Ingredients	Crafting recipe
Pink Petals

Bees

Bees can pollinate pink petals like other flowers. They can also be bred using pink petals.

Bee nests

Oak, birch, and cherry trees grown from saplings that are within 2 blocks of pink petals have a 5% chance to grow with a bee nest and 2-3 bees in it.

Composting

Placing pink petals into a composter has a 30% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

Color

The coloration of the green stems below pink petals is dependent on the biome they are in. A block always uses the color set to its location, regardless of how it was placed or of its source.

These values are generated by the biome dyeing algorithm. See Biome colors for more information.

History

Announcement

February 14, 2023							Pink petals were shown as part of the cherry grove biome.[2]

Java Edition

Java Edition
1.19.4 Experiment Update 1.20			23w07a				Added pink petals behind the "Update 1.20" experimental data pack.
							The model files used are in a very unoptimized state - despite only being intended to be composed of 2D planes (represented in models as zero-width cuboids), all six faces are still defined in the model, despite most not being visible.
			pre1				Bees now see pink petals as flowers.[3]
							Pink petals now mine instantly.[4]
			pre2				The texture of pink petals has now been changed.
1.20			23w12a				Pink petals are now available without using the "Update 1.20" experimental data pack.
							The model used is now optimized, removing all of the zero-area faces from each element.[5]
							However, this has also resulted in the accidental removal of one of the stem planes, specifically from the even-centered flower present when three or more pink petals occupy the same space.
			23w14a				minecraft:pink_petals is now part of the block tags #minecraft:mineable/hoe and minecraft:sword_efficient. This, however, has no effect in-game, since the block breaks instantly anyway regardless of tool used or active effects.
1.20.2			23w31a				The accidentally removed stem plane has been readded.[6]
							The size of the hitbox now increases with the number of petals.[7]
1.21.5			25w10a				minecraft:pink_petals has been removed from the block tags #minecraft:mineable/hoe and #minecraft:sword_efficient.
26.1			snap7				The texture for pink petals has been changed to remove a transparent pixel.[8]

Bedrock Edition

Bedrock Edition
1.19.80 Experiment Next Major Update			Preview 1.19.80.20				Added pink petals behind the "Next Major Update" experimental toggle.
1.20.0			Preview 1.20.0.21				Pink petals are now available without using the "Next Major Update" experimental toggle.
1.20.30			Preview 1.20.30.20				Pink petals now use the minecraft:cardinal_direction block state instead of direction.
