It really sucks that Mojang didn’t add the new and improved birch biome to the ”Wild” update. But not to worry, with some vanilla tweaks here and there I have brought the birch biome back to life. Sorta…

Since we got the flower pedals in the 1.20 update. I thought this would be the perfect time to re-introduce the forgotten birch biome. The new Meadows generate flower pedals just like cherry blossom biomes. It also generates cut down birch logs covered in moss. Sometimes they generate with bee nests on top. Taller and different-looking birch trees are added to distinguish them from the regular birch tree forests like in Sign-In image that’s shown above.

It’s not a complete one-to-one representation of what they showed. That’s why it’s called a bootleg birch forest lol. I can only do so much strictly just using vanilla blocks, I couldn’t figure out how to implement the growing mushrooms. I could replace a double plant texture to look like the one in the concept art, but that would be up to you guys. Maybe adding color variants to the flower pedals. Idk yet lol
