How to Find and Harvest New Plants and Berries

Assorted Discoveries adds several new plants across the Overworld and the Nether that you can gather for food recipes, decoration, and utility.

Finding Nether Berry Bushes

When exploring the Nether, keep an eye out for two new bush variants that generate naturally:

• Cindersnap Bushes
• Frostbite Bushes

Approach these bushes to harvest their unique berries. Once collected, you can bring the berries back to your base to craft sweet treats, berry pudding, or fruit juices. You can also plant your crops and berries into craftable wooden planter boxes, which can be made to match any vanilla wood type.

Farming Bog Blossoms in Swamps

If you need decorative swamp foliage, head to any vanilla swamp biome to locate Bog Blossoms.

1. Find a naturally spawned Bog Blossom on the swamp floor.

2. Equip Bone Meal in your hand.

3. Use the Bone Meal directly on the Bog Blossom to make it multiply instantly, allowing you to farm as many as you need from a single plant.

Using Bouncy Purple Mushrooms

While exploring, look for Purple Mushrooms. Unlike standard mushrooms used only for stews or decoration, these blocks have a physical utility: stepping or landing on a purple mushroom launches you straight into the air. You can harvest and place them around your base as natural elevators or landing pads.
