Plant Anywhere
by Gurkis
Plant Anywhere lets players set many plant blocks on surfaces where vanilla rules normally refuse them, widening where flowers, crops and fungi can go.
What it does
Plant Anywhere covers flowers and vegetation such as roses and dandelions, grass and ferns, saplings including azalea, crops like wheat, carrots, potatoes and beetroot, and melon and pumpkin stems. Mushrooms and fungi are included, including crimson and warped, as are Nether plants such as nether sprouts, warped and crimson roots and the wither rose. Dry vegetation, the dead bush and dry grass blocks, dripleaf in both small and big form, and mangrove propagules, including the hanging kind, are covered too.
Placement is not left completely open. Some plants keep their size and sensible limits, and the placement rules are changed rather than removed, so the result stays close to a realistic world. Only the server has to run the mod; players may add it for the client side, and the server still works without it on their end. Plant Anywhere is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Builds exist for 26.1 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and a data pack version is also available for servers.
Key features
Broad plant coverage
Flowers, crops, saplings, fungi, Nether plants and dripleaf can all be set on blocks they normally cannot.
Full block support
Plants can be placed on a wide set of blocks, including grass, stone, wool and shulker boxes.
Carrots on barrels
Carrot plants can be placed on top of a barrel block, adding a planting option for decorative builds.
Restricted rules
Some plants keep a smaller footprint and sensible limits instead of unlimited freedom, so placement still feels grounded.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Builders and server owners who want more freedom in how plants are placed. The server needs Plant Anywhere, and players can join with or without it.
How it compares
Nik's Craftables - Plants is needed on the server, with the client optional. It is released under All rights reserved, with files for 26.1 – 26.1.2 across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Tree Brush follows the same pattern, with the server running it and players free to skip it, under All rights reserved and with files for 1.21.5 – 26.3. Craftable Tall Grass uses a custom license and covers 1.20.2 – 26.3, so it is the only option here under a non-standard license.

What the author says
Ever tried placing grass on a stone block? Or carrots on top of a barrel? Now you can! This datapack expands the blocks that plants can be placed on to include (almost) every block in the game. It's a simple tag-only datapack, so no functions, no entities, no performance impact. Just more planting freedom!
