Floralis

Floralis aims to make any dye color farmable by adding cactus and flower crops to the game. Further it aims to do that in an automatable way with the help of third party mods. For example with a Multi Farm from Forestry, Garden Cloche from Immersive Engineering, Plant Sower and Plant Gatherer from Industrial Foregoing and Phytogenic Insulator from Thermal Expansion.

As soon as you travel around your world, you will find either a new type of cactus or flower, depending on the biome you wander through. Cactus crops can be found in any desert type biome, while flower crops can be found in any other biome but desert type biome. When you look around for a while, you will see that there is one type of cactus and flower crop for each dye color. You will find them every few chunks in patches sorted by their color. These patches are likely to be made up from crops of up to four different growth stages. Upon breaking either a cactus or flower crop, they will drop one seed of their respective color and plant type. When the crop is fully grown, one additional seed of their respective color and plant type, one petal of their respective color and one plant fiber will be dropped. Seeds of course can be used to replant the crop while petals are the actual dye source and plant fibers can be used like bone meal or as fertilizer with third party mods. The seeds are pretty straight forward to use, either plant cactus seeds on sand or flower seeds on dirt, while farmland can be used for both cactus and flower seeds. Harvesting cactus or flower crops with shears or a silk touch enchanted tool will drop the cactus or flower itself, for you to place or plant in a flower pot. Breaking a placed cactus or flower will always drop itself while breaking a potted cactus or flower will always drop itself in addition to the flower pot of course.

Drying petals in a furnace will finally result in their respective dye counterpart.

In case you stock up too much dye, you can store it in respective dye blocks.

Of course you can reverse this process to get dye back from their respective dye blocks.

In case you stock up too much plant fibers, you can store it in plant fibers blocks.

Of course you can reverse this process to get plant fibers back from plant fibers blocks.
