Wildflowers Backport
by Micle
Wildflowers Backport brings the wildflowers added in Minecraft 1.21.5 to the 1.20.1 Forge version of the game.
What it does
Wildflowers Backport ports wildflowers from a newer release into older game builds. Flowers are placed in world generation, so they can appear in meadow and forest biomes that spawn them. The textures and sounds are recreated for this build, and the flowers work similarly to the original where the older game allows. It runs on client and server and is published for Forge only, with the code under All rights reserved.
Key features
Flowers in new terrain
Flower blocks from the newer release are placed by world generation, so they show up in the biomes that spawn them.
Recreated textures and sounds
The flower textures and sounds from the newer release are recreated so the flowers look and sound close to the original.
Flowers that behave like the original
Flowers act as closely to the 1.21.5 versions as the older game allows, with no separate setup needed.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
How it compares
The 1.21.5 Backport is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 under the Apache License 2.0, so its code is open for others to read and reuse. Wildflowers Backport is not open source. No Wildflowers in Meadows covers Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and it works on the server while players may add it, so a client without it can still join.

What the author says
All in-game textures/sounds are from 1.21.5 made by Mojang. I did not make them. This mod simply brings the wildflowers from 1.21.5 to older versions. It works as similarly to the original as possible. It can be found in birch forests, old growth birch forests, and meadows.
