A lily of the valley is a flower that can be crafted into white dye.

Obtaining[edit | edit source]

Breaking[edit | edit source]

A lily of the valley can be broken instantly with any item or by hand, dropping itself.

A lily of the valley also breaks if water or lava runs over its location, if a piston extends or pushes a block into its location, or if a block under the plant is moved or destroyed.

Natural generation[edit | edit source]

Lilies of the valley generate naturally on dirt and grass blocks in BiomeSprite forest.png: Sprite image for forest in Minecraft linking to forestforest, BiomeSprite flower-forest.png: Sprite image for flower-forest in Minecraft linking to flower forestflower forest, BiomeSprite birch-forest.png: Sprite image for birch-forest in Minecraft linking to birch forestbirch forest, BiomeSprite old-growth-birch-forest.png: Sprite image for old-growth-birch-forest in Minecraft linking to old growth birch forestold growth birch forest, and BiomeSprite dark-forest.png: Sprite image for dark-forest in Minecraft linking to dark forestdark forest biomes as part of vegetation features. In flower forests, they generate both in random patches and as part of the flower gradient in Java Edition, and only as part of the gradient in Bedrock Edition.

Post-generation[edit | edit source]

Main article: Flower § Post-generation

Java Edition[edit | edit source]

When bone meal is applied to a grass block in a flower forest biome, lilies of the valley have a chance of generating on the targeted block and adjacent grass blocks in a 15×5×15 area, depending entirely on the flower gradient. Lilies of the valley cannot be regrown in areas where they generated naturally as part of a random patch,[1] as well as in other biomes where it generates naturally.[2]

Bedrock Edition[edit | edit source]

When bone meal is applied to a grass block in a forest, flower forest, birch forest, old growth birch forest, or dark forest biome, lilies of the valley have a chance of generating on the targeted block and adjacent grass blocks in a 7×5×7 area. In flower forests, lilies of the valley can generate only in specific locations depending on the flower gradient.

When bone meal is applied to a lily of the valley in any biome, more lilies of the valley appear on top of nearby grass blocks. The flowers can appear up to 3 blocks away from the original, forming a 7×7 square.

Mob loot[edit | edit source]

In Java Edition, endermen can pick up lilies of the valley, like any other one-block-tall flower, and drop it if killed while holding it.

Trading[edit | edit source]

Wandering traders may sell a lily of the valley for a single emerald.

Usage[edit | edit source]

Main article: Flower § Usage

Like other flowers, lilies of the valley can be used as decoration and planted on grass blocks, dirt, coarse dirt, rooted dirt, farmland, podzol, mycelium, moss blocks, mud, or muddy mangrove roots.

Lilies of the valley can also be placed in flower pots.
