Where Can Potted Flowering Azaleas Be Found?

Potted Flowering Azaleas do not generate naturally and must be crafted by players. To create one, place a Flower Pot on a solid block and then right-click it with a Flowering Azalea. Flowering Azaleas are found in Lush Caves biomes and can also be obtained by applying Bone Meal to a Moss Block, which has a chance of generating both Azaleas and Flowering Azaleas. Flower Pots are crafted using three Bricks, which are obtained by smelting Clay Balls in a Furnace.
