While it is a magic mod centered around flowers and nature, Botania doesn't have much of an impact on Minecraft's natural environment. This mod aims to fix that by adding some biomes that make use of Botania's blocks:

Mystical Forest

A forest with blue-ish tinted foliage, and a large tree made of Livingwood. The Mystical Forest is an overworld biome characterized by its blue-ish foliage. It is made up of a mixture of tree species, including oak, dark oak, birch, and spruce, but most notably the large Livingwood Trees with their Bifrost leaves. The ground is scattered with Livingrock clumps and white magical particles float through the air.

Petal Pastures

A brightly colored hill covered in both normal flowers and giant ones. The Petal Pastures is an overworld biome filled with both normal flowers and Giant Mystical Flowers made of petal blocks. Brightly colored grass and an abundant supply of petals makes this an ideal spot for starting a Botania-powered base.

Shattered Wastes

A hill covered in dry grass, fossils, and Dreamwood Logs The Shattered Wastes is an overworld biome ruined by the Shattering that seperated the Overworld from Alfheim. This area is now home only to the remains of a few old Dreamwood Trees, some pools of Bifrost, a smattering of Obsidian, and the skeletons of the creatures that once roamed these lands.

Metamorphic Caves

A large cave with different colored rocks making up the walls. The Metamorphic Caves is a cave biome where an anomaly in the world's mana field has caused much of the stone to transform into the types of metamorphic rocks typically only obtained from the Marimorphosis.

Fel Fields

An area of the Nether covered in reddish grass and fel pumpkins. The Fel Fields is a nether biome covered in red Scorched Grass and patches of evil-eyed Fel Pumpkins. The open terrain makes traversal easy, but also making aiming easy for its inhabitant: the Blaze. This biome is also home to the Fel Fountain, a structure serving as a rare source of water in the Nether.

Configuration

This mod has a server side JSON configuration file that allows you to individually enable and disable the generation of each biome. Further details can be customized using data packs.

Porting

This mod is currently only for Fabric 1.20.1, as that is the only version both Botania and Biolith support. This mod's codebase is designed to be compatible with Forge and NeoForge as well, so once Botania updates or if Biolith is backported, I will publish builds for those versions. I do not plan on backporting further than 1.20.1, as that is the earliest version Biolith supports.
