Chorus flowers are plants that are found in the End. They grow on chorus plants.

Obtaining

Chorus flowers can be mined with any tool and will drop themselves when broken. They will not drop anything when pushed by a piston or water, or when their supporting block is destroyed.

Natural generation

Chorus flowers are naturally generated in the End at the top of chorus plants, in their fully-grown state.

Farming

Chorus flowers can be planted and will grow in any dimension, regardless of light level. A flower will no longer grow once it has reached age 5 (appearing purple rather than white), but may be harvested and replanted to reset the age.

Usage

Chorus flowers are used to grow chorus plants. They can be planted on end stone in any dimension.

Placement and growth

Chorus flowers must be above end stone or chorus plant, or be above air and horizontally adjacent to exactly one chorus plant. If these conditions are not met, the block breaks without dropping anything.

Each block tick until the flower reaches age 5, the flower will attempt to grow if the block above is air. The flower will not age if growth is not attempted due to lack of an air block above.

The flower may attempt to grow upwards depending on the structure of chorus plant blocks directly beneath:

  • 100% chance if zero or one plant block is directly beneath
  • 60% if the flower is above a two-block unbranched plant (i.e. two plant blocks over endstone)
  • 50% if above a two-block high branch (i.e. two plant blocks over air)
  • 40% if above a three-block unbranched plant
  • 25% if above a three-block high branch
  • 20% if above a four-block unbranched plant

The growth attempt succeeds if the blocks horizontally adjacent to and above the target block above are all air, and results in the target block becoming a flower block with the same age while the existing flower block turns to chorus plant.

If upwards growth does not occur and the flower's age is less than 4, the flower may attempt to branch horizontally. 1–4 branches are attempted on an unbranched plant or 0–3 on a branched plant. For each branch a horizontal direction is chosen at random, and if the block in that direction is an air block with more air blocks on all other horizontal sides and an air block below, it is replaced with a flower with age incremented by 1. If at least one branch succeeds, the original flower block is turned to chorus plant.

If no growth occurs on a growth attempt, the flower's age is set to 5.

The amount of chorus flowers a player gets from a fully and unrestricted grown chorus plant ranges from 1 to 7, averaging at around 3.7 flowers per plant. Most flowers are located around 13-15 blocks above the end stone block on which the original chorus flower was planted, see the table below for some rough percentages on flower heights.

{{About|the item|the ore|Lapis Lazuli Ore|the mineral block|Lapis Lazuli Block}}

'''Lapis lazuli''' is a mineral required to [[Enchanting|enchant]] items in an [[Enchanting Table|enchanting table]].

== Obtaining ==

When mined with a stone [[pickaxe]] or better, [[lapis lazuli ore]] drops 4–9 lapis lazuli. With the [[Fortune]] III enchantment, a single block has a chance of dropping up to 36 items.

=== Villager gifts ===

{{IN|java}}, cleric [[villager]]s give [[player]]s lapis lazuli if they have the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.

=== Trading ===

Apprentice-level cleric villagers sell one lapis lazuli for an [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

{{IN|bedrock}}, [[wandering trader]]s may sell 3 lapis lazuli for an emerald.

=== Chest loot ===
{{see also|Lapis Lazuli Ore#Natural generation}}
{{LootChestItem|lapis-lazuli}}

== Usage ==

=== Enchanting ===

1–3 pieces of lapis lazuli are required to use an [[Enchanting Table|enchanting table]] to enchant an [[items|item]]. More specifically, the enchanting table UI shows 3 options (see [[Enchanting mechanics]] for details): the first, second, and third options cost 1, 2, and 3 lapis lazuli, respectively.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

Lapis lazuli can be used to make [[blocks of lapis lazuli]] and [[blue dye]]. {{IN|bedrock}}, it can also be used directly as a substitute for blue dye.

{{IN|bedrock}}, lapis lazuli can be also used in banner patterns:

* Lapis lazuli is the only [[ore]] that can be used as a [[dye]]{{only|BE|short=1}} or making a dye.
* It is the only item that can be put in the second slot of an [[enchantment table]].
