Description

Botania: ManaBloom

Give your Botania garden a little more magic.

The Lantern Garden

Botania: ManaBloom transforms Botania's generating and functional flowers with detailed 3D blooms, luminous petal highlights, themed particle effects, and individual flower GUIs. From the warm embers of an active Endoflame to Rosa Arcana's violet petals, each flower brings its own character to your garden.

A garden worth looking at

  • 40 flower themes with distinct shapes, colors, and decorative GUI details.
  • Detailed 3D flower models, including supported floating and miniature variants.
  • Luminous highlights that keep magical accents bright after sunset.
  • Activity-driven effects that respond to flowers working, while idle flowers stay quiet.
  • Varied placement angles for more natural-looking flower beds.

See your flowers at work

Look directly at a supported flower to open its readout. No monocle or special equipment is needed.

Generating flowers show their current stored mana and capacity. Functional flowers display their ability, mana, cost, range, and relevant status information, such as working, waiting, needing mana, or being on cooldown.

The panels use each flower's actual data. Their colors, emblems, and ornaments help give every flower its own identity.

Exoflame with its live ability GUI

Your Botania gameplay stays familiar

ManaBloom is a visual enhancement addon. It adds no new flowers, recipes, progression, or mana mechanics. Ordinary decorative flowers and flowers from other mods do not receive its readouts.

You can adjust the GUI size and position, toggle animations and flower particles, and choose particle detail. Resource packs can also customize flower GUI artwork.

Requirements

  • Minecraft Java 1.20.1
  • Forge 47.2 or newer
  • Botania 1.20.1-455-FORGE, with Patchouli and Curios

Singleplayer includes live functional status automatically. For live functional ability information in multiplayer, install ManaBloom on both the client and the server. Without the server addon, functional panels indicate that a server installation is required.

The screenshots show an intentionally built showcase garden using ManaBloom. The garden is not an automatically generated structure. No shader pack is required for the mod's luminous flower highlights; those highlights do not cast light onto nearby blocks.

The main gallery uses Complementary Reimagined r5.9.1 for lighting and reflections. Matching screenshots without shaders are also included. Shaders are optional and are not bundled with ManaBloom.
