White Tulips are among the few multi-colored flowers in the game, offering a clean and elegant aesthetic. When potted, they serve as a simple yet beautiful decoration, perfect for adding a touch of purity and brightness to any build. Their soft white petals make them ideal for minimalist designs, wedding-themed builds, and modern interiors.

Where Can Potted White Tulips Be Found?

Potted White Tulips 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 White Tulip. White Tulips naturally generate in Flower Forest biomes and can also appear in Plains biomes when using Bone Meal on Grass Blocks. Players can collect them by breaking the flowers directly.

Flower Pots, required for crafting, are made using three Bricks, which are obtained by smelting Clay Balls in a Furnace.
