Navigation

[edit | edit source]

Sunflowers always face east, making them useful for navigation if the sun is not visible. This also works in the Nether and the End.

Bees engage in a pollinating behavior with sunflowers, increasing the honey level in beehives and bee nests by 1.

Breeding

[edit | edit source]

Sunflowers can be used to breed, grow, and lead bees.

Bee nests

[edit | edit source]

Oak, birch, and cherry trees grown from saplings that are within 2 blocks of a sunflower have a 5% chance to grow with a bee nest and 2-3 bees in it.

Composting

[edit | edit source]

Placing a sunflower into a composter has a 65% chance of raising the compost level by 1. A stack of sunflowers yields an average of 5.94 bone meal.
