Poppies, the iconic red flower, replaced the original rose and cyan flowers in updates. They spawn naturally in various biomes and are sometimes dropped by Iron Golems. Their primary use is crafting red dye, essential for coloring banners, beds, wool, sheep, and wolf collars.
Dandelion

Tall, red rose bushes thrive in various wooded biomes. Like lilacs and sunflowers, they are one of Minecraft's taller, two-block flowers. They yield red dye, used for dyeing wool, banners, beds, leather armor, and more. A safe and visually appealing landscaping choice.
Wither Rose

The ominous wither rose doesn't grow naturally; it spawns when a mob is killed by the Wither or rarely found in the Nether. Touching it inflicts the Wither effect (curable with milk). It's used to create black dye and firework stars, a dangerous but valuable resource.
Peony Bush
