Here is a great decoration for either in interior or exterior of your house/office.

Note: To have a grassy top in survival, you will need to grow it by first attaching your block to an existing grassy block.

A flower pot is a decorative block that can contain flowers, bamboo, saplings, cacti, mushrooms, fungi, and other reasonably small plants.

Obtaining[]

Natural generation[]

Flower pots naturally generate in witch huts where they contain a red mushroom, the basement of igloos where they contain a cactus, and in woodland mansions, where they contain birch saplings, dark oak saplings, dandelions, poppies, blue orchids, alliums, azure bluets, red and white tulips, and oxeye daisies.

Flower pots containing a dandelion can be found in some plains and savanna village houses. Flower pots containing a cactus or a dead bush can be found in some desert village houses. Flower pots containing a spruce sapling can be found in taiga village mason houses. Flower pots containing a poppy can be found in taiga village churches.

Breaking[]

Flower pots can be mined instantly using any tool or without a tool.

A flower pot drops itself as an item (any plant or mushroom in it separately) when pushed by a piston or washed away with water.

Lava can flow into the space of a flower pot, destroying it.

Usage[]

A flower pot can be used to hold mushrooms, fungi, and various plants. Plants that can be placed in a pot include any one block high flowers, saplings, ferns, dead bushes, cacti, bamboo, azaleas, mangrove propagule and roots.

Plants can be removed by using the interact button.

In Java Edition, flower pots can be placed on any block, or over air.

In Bedrock Edition, they must be placed on top of a full-block top surface, or the top of a fence, stone wall, or hopper. They cannot be placed on slabs and stairs unless those blocks are upside-down.

Flower pots are 3⁄8 of a block high and can be stepped on. It is not possible to walk from the top of a flower pot onto a full sized block without jumping. It is possible to jump from a flower pot onto a fence.

The plant or mushroom can be removed from the flower pot by pressing the use control. This places the item directly back into the player's inventory. While this behavior is inconsistent with other blocks such as sweet berry bush, it is in fact completely intended.[1]

They can be used to display cacti and wither roses without inheriting their damaging properties.[2][3]

Potted warped fungus can be used to repel hoglins.

History[]

Java Edition
August 16, 2012	Dinnerbone tweeted the first image of flower pots.
1.4.2	12w34a	Added flower pots.
At this point, plants inside of pots rendered much like they do outside of flower pots, not being subject to directional shading.
12w40a	A potted red mushroom can now be found on one window of a witch hut. This changed to an empty pot in a far later unknown version,[more information needed] but returned again afterward.[more information needed]
1.7.2	13w36a	Allium, azure bluet, oxeye daisies, blue orchids, red tulips, orange tulips, white tulips and pink tulips can now be placed in flower pots.
As the rose has been effectively retconned to the poppy, the potted rose is also now replaced with the potted poppy as a result.
Flower pots can no longer use data values because more than 15 plants can be potted, it now has a block entity instead.
Due to the tile entity handling, it is now possible to place any block inside of a flower pot via NBT editors. However, at this point, with the ones possible in vanilla survival aside, only grass, green shrubs, and cobwebs actually render.
Potted grass now exists can be placed in flower pots using commands.
Potted shrubs, grass, and ferns must now have block data value 11 to display biome colors, otherwise rendering as default/gray.
13w37a	Added /setblock, allowing for the aforementioned potted plants to be obtained without map editing.
13w43a	Acacia sapling and dark oak saplings can now be placed in flower pots.
1.8	14w06a	Many more blocks (almost all full cubes) placed into a flower pot by modifying the block entity now render, if in somewhat buggy fashion, as the texture is in a cross shape. Click show to display all of the applicable blocks.
Potted cacti now appear as a cross formed of their bottom texture inside of a pot.[4]
14w06b	Further blocks now render in flower pots than did in the previous snapshot. Click show to display all of the applicable blocks.
The accidental potted cactus model change has been reverted.
14w07a	The newly added iron trapdoor also renders in flower pots when created with commands.
14w17a	The flower pot model and rendering has changed. The insides are now subject to directional shading, rather than being fully lit, much like the changes made to hoppers and cauldrons in 14w10a. In addition, the outer face (as well as the cuboids comprising the cactus in potted cactus) appear to either no longer be subject to ambient occlusion at all, or to a much lesser extent. The potted cactus also now uses the side texture on the top face, rather than the top texture.
Invalid blocks no longer render inside flower pots. This also includes cobweb and grass.
14w25a	Potted cross shaped objects are now affected by directional shading.[5]
1.9	15w43a	A potted cactus can now be found on a table in igloo basements.
1.11	16w32a	The block entity ID of flower pots has been changed from FlowerPot to flower_pot.
16w39a	Potted plants can now be removed from flower pots by pressing use.
Flower pots now generate in woodland mansions.
1.13	17w47a	The different block states for the flower_pot ID have been split up into their own IDs.
Flower pots are no longer block entities.
Prior to The Flattening, this block's numeral ID was 140, and the item's was 390.
1.14	18w43a	The textures of flower pots and their contained plants have been changed.
Cornflower, lily of the valley, wither rose and bamboo can now be placed in flower pots.
18w44a	The texture of potted cacti has been changed.
18w47b	The texture of potted poppies has been changed.
18w49a	Flower pots can now be found in chests in village mason houses.
19w11a	Flower pots have become renewable, as mason villagers now sell bricks.
1.16	20w06a	The model of flower pots has been fixed and has been given an underside, which has changed the model from to .
20w09a	Crimson and warped fungi and crimson and warped roots can now be placed in flower pots.
The model for potted plants has been fixed, so the bottom face now renders,[6] which has changed the model from to .
20w11a	An unneeded face has been removed from potted bamboo to solve a z-fighting issue.[7]
Pre-release 3	The model of the potted cacti has been changed. The top face now uses the top texture of cactus, rather than the side texture and the bottom face has been changed to the top texture of the flower pot.
1.16.2	20w28a	The model of the potted cactus no longer has a hole in the bottom, although the texture is stretched.
1.17	Pre-release 1	Azalea and flowering azalea can now be placed in flower pots.
1.19	22w11a	Mangrove propagules can now be placed in flower pots.
22w18a	The western element of the flower pot in potted mangrove propagules has been deleted.[8]
