Mystical Plants Legacy
Mystical Plants Legacy adds a set of magical plants to the world, some useful and some dangerous, along with elemental plants and tools crafted from them.
What it does
Several of the added plants are animated, and most of them react when a player interacts with them. Their animation is a simple bounce. Five elemental plant types are included; they can be useful or dangerous, and some can be farmed. Elemental tools are endgame equipment with abilities that differ from vanilla Netherite tools.
Elemental tools are not made with a normal recipe. A player first has to find a broken one, which appears in the biome tied to the matching elemental plant, and then craft it from there. The author states that the mod is still unfinished and that everything may change until its first stable release, so the wiki guide is the place for current details.
The mod is Fabric only and targets 1.21.1 alone. It runs on the client and the server, so both need it. The license is a custom one, and the code is not open source, although the source code, issue tracker and wiki are public.
